    Here is the salient point on the Wikipedia page that explains why horses don’t produce 1 HP:

    Watt judged that the horse could pull with a force of 180 pounds-force (800 N)

    Basically, Watts made up HP to sell his steam engine to mines and likely made up a number to make the new technology seem better.

    Some things never change.















  • OH MY GISH !!! parent comes from the Latin for to produce??? Like produce that can be shipped in ships, therefore when you are Berne’s you become produce that can be shipped on a ship, turning you in a product of the US government corp (unincorporated), which means that when you are driving you are actually being shipped as freight in your car, which means that only maritime law applies and that the cop that is stopping you doesn’t have jurisdiction because you are actually a shipped good and he isn’t the coast guard or a customs officer.

    That also means that you can’t physically be charged for stuff because the shipping company (i.e. the US government) is actually responsible for all the costs incurred during shipping (i.e. you driving) under the imperial maritime charter or 1753 and the amended treaty of Orville of 1772.

    That makes sense now. Thank you!!!
