DEMEA: No one has ever plotted out his life’s plan so successfully that he never faces
New challenges and discoveries brought about by circumstances, the passing of time,
Or experience itself. Inevitably, you discover you don’t know what you thought you did,
And the principles we first formed don’t hold up in the face of everyday practice.
[Nunquam ita quisquam bene subducta ratione ad vitam fuit
Quia res, Ætas usus semper aliquid apportet novi
Aliquid moneat, ut illa, quæ te scire credas, nescias
Et, quæ tibi putaris prima, in experiundo ut repudies.]Terence (186?-159 BC) African-Roman dramatist [Publius Terentius Afer]
Adelphoe [Adelphoi; Adelphi; The Brothers], Act 5, sc. 4, l. 855ff (160 BC) [tr. Christenson (2010), Sc. 22]More about (and translations of) this quote: wist.info/terence/85152/

Well, this was a really disappointing / shitty #documentary about #Malaysian #MH370. If you think you will learn anything new: nope.
If you like #conspiracy #theories, such as #Russian spies on board accessing the electronics bay, #hacking the computers, disabling #navigation, #faking #location data, taking control and landing the plane somewhere: have fun.
I more or less expected some info on the (disputed) analysis of #WSPR data, but no word about that either.
