Reverse Engineering Ahmed Mohammed's Clock
Ahmed Mohamed didn’t invent his own alarm clock. He didn’t even build a clock.
The kid has...what...for a scientific background? Handful of years in school learning theory and concepts. Maybe a few in practical applications. An he wants to impress someone beyond his family that he might have some real talent and drive to learn/do more. One would think that would be the educator. Failing that, the principle. Both those individuals failed in a major way! Those two should be held accountable. For all we know the scientist teacher does not have a background in science or engineering; its sadly more common than we liked to think in our nation.
An a engineer with many years of experience, whom went to college (i.e. he finished high school).
While the engineer does try to be objective, he fails at one of his arguments:
"For one last bit of confirmation, I located the pencil box Ahmed used for his project. During this video interview he again claims it was his “invention” and that he “made” the device – but the important thing at the moment, at 1:13, we see him showing the pencil box on his computer screen. Here it is on Amazon, where it’s clearly labeled as being 8.25 inches wide. Our eBay seller also conveniently took a photo of the clock next to a ruler to show it’s scale – about 8 inches wide. The dimensions all line up perfectly."
Sounds 'OK', right?
Notice the author does not talk about finding the information on Amazon but Ebay? Where is the link from Ebay?
Yes, he gives two images not to each other as 'proof'. Well, hell, I can do the same thing, thus, 'proving' that any GOP/TP candidate is 'OK' with Iran by placing a picture of them next to a diagram of a map of Iran. Would I get nailed on the forums for doing this? Oh FUCK YEAH! So why are you not attacking this engineer?
He never claimed to have invented the box. He claimed he placed the parts within the box. Funny how the engineering author left this convenient fact from his argument, eh?
For someone like you, Kirata, never noticed it. Someone like me, Kirata, tend to look over each piece of evidence objectively. That is why I spotted it and you did not!
Maybe the kid had used the plans and tried to 'jazz' it up. However, (to play Devil's Advocate), he wanted to get his science teacher's input of the initial design and maybe ask questions on how certain things could be added to it (an engineering perspective). Yet, was never allowed to go that far. In fact, maybe the kid had an evil motive? Or a good one? We'll never know given events.
Yet, many people in the nation seem to wish to give this kid a shot towards having a good future. Creating things in science and engineering. An he shouldn't be the only one either! Regardless of their skin color, name, or even religion; if they wish to improve humanity through technology....we should help them!
In care you are wondering, its not unusual for MIT to invite children interested in science and engineering to come to their school. They do it all the time. In fact, they love doing it. That others in science and engineering have invited him is not uncommon either. NASA has a whole camp devoted to the concept: Space Camp. The President of the United States of America understands what its like to be accused of falsehoods by the right wing. That all these people unit against the haters in our nation says this nation is still a good place to live!
