Analytical is where I talk about different ideas and concepts that I’ve come across over decades of Engineering relating to design, managing people, projects and so on. Also other topics of personal interest like Music, Nostalgia, Familiarity and Ideas just to name a few. Essentially anything that doesn’t really fit into my other shows but I still find interesting and worth discussing.

I try to be careful, considered and calculated in how I do business in my career. I may not have always succeeded, and if I felt like something went well or didn’t go well and I wasn’t sure why, I just hadn’t analysed it enough. Hence the premise of this show.

Everything can be improved, iterated and refined and if you don’t think that’s true…maybe you haven’t analysed it enough? Calculated Choices. Carefully Considered. Absolutely Analytical.

Intro to SDR Kits:

  • Software Defined Radio: $40ish SDR using a hacked European HDTV setup (RTL2832U). The chip has a feature where it can spit out the raw IQ data instead of the specific demodulated TV stream. It’s definitely hacky and it can’t transmit but it’s a relatively low cost intro into SDRs.
  • Adafruit SDR: Basic set-up from Adafruit that’s all contained in one easy USB dongle using the same IC as above.
  • Ossmans Kit: Not exactly a beginner’s kit in the sense that it’s cheap ($300 plus antenna) but probably one of the most full-featured starter’s out there sold by Mike Ossmann. He’s currently got a 9 video course available online to go with the HACK RF.
  • Mike Ossmans Video Course or he also teaches two day seminars on SDRs at security conferences across the globe.

Chain of Events. Cause and Effect. We analyse what went right and what went wrong as we discover that many outcomes can be predicted, planned for and even prevented. This is Causality and I’m John Chidgey. An electrical engineer by degree, Chartered Professional Engineer in Electrical, Information, Telecommunications and Electronic Engineering, with a passion for fault finding, root cause analysis and above all else, learning lessons from our collective mistakes. Because when we don’t understand our collective history, we’re doomed to make the same mistakes, over and over again.

I’m the creator, writer, researcher, host, editor and producer of Causality. My goal: not only explore what went wrong with major incidents that occurred around the world throughout history, but to explore what people, real people that could have made a difference at the time, what could they have done differently to prevent that from happening. How can we design things better? How can prevent incidents from occurring. From Titanic to Challenger, from Piper Alpha to Flint Michigan, from Bhopal to Deepwater Horizon, there are always things we could have done, to prevent them.

No actors, no sound effects, no re-enactments, no nonsense. If you’re an engineer, an operator, a designer, a developer or a person that’s just curious and cares, I hope you’ll join me as we discover that many outcomes can be predicted, planned for and even prevented. I’m John Chidgey. This is Causality. Thanks in advance for listening.
