misc thoughts Dated 2025 in Ottawa Canada, updated December of 2025 (misc ration card) , updated on January 04 of 2026.
Methods used these days for authentication purpose on internet/websites/apps etc. for login by ordinary people for bank accounts, email accounts, shopping sites etc are bogus and just a illusion to provide a sense of protection. It was not unlikely these days (i.e. after nearly 50 years) people have made connections and have friends, insiders, position of powers, politicians, influencers, etc working on servers, data centres to steal the exchange of numbers between servers and the end users. Having access to the login authentication numbers by insiders, means login technology was not as secure as they would tell people. Rather fraud makers and criminal minds will use these methods as hurdles for less knowledgable and honest user of technology. In the early years of technology when mainframes were used for work and similar activities, it was very hard to find such insiders, or connections working in the industry, only those who got inducted through education channels or professional channels would know such information which was very rare, and such people were not fraud makers, they were more focussed on making technology work and do unimaginable things, instead of bypassing technology for fraud or to show power and authority, negative creativity.
People get confused for various reasons, some times because of their own limitations and lack of knowledge, lack of expertise etc but they blame others for it. Also there were some people on this planet earth who make efforts to confuse others and enjoy with the outcome. I never initiate to confuse others. If human beings were to be compared with advanced complex machines than some human beings are more advanced or more complex than the others, which may be confusing for simple minded human beings.
Engineer (male) KhalidMahmood is offspring son of Master Heather since 1956 and also he is a Male parent of three offsprings. Therefore, He is Son (in Master Heather's family) and he is Father as well (male Parent in his own family).
I have encountered this situation several times, that some of the service providers, retail businesses say my incomplete name over the phone even after my request to say my complete name which makes it very obvious that they have malicious/fraud intentions in not saying my complete name to create some kind of ambiguity, either for their own benefit or some one else's benefit by disregarding my choice how I want to hear my name.
I became independent from parental supervision when I went away to Eindhoven in 1981 as a Philips Scholarship student. Since than I live my own life. I do not need anyone's approval to what I eat, what I drink, what I wear, what I spend, how much I spend, what I spend on, etc because I live within my own bounds, within my own limits. If anyone creates a illusion by saying that they approve it for me, that is a lie, they say so just to enhance their importance/status because have no importance/status. Children from parents and govt. employees from their departments need approval for almost everything including shopping. I do not have any known approval authority above me because I am not an employee of any one. I am independent and make my own decisions. Some times parental approval in deceision making provides strength but since of both my parents died many years ago I have learned to face the consequences of my own decisions. Both of my parents died in my absence. My male parent died when I was out of the country in Eindhoven and mother died when I was outdoors at a pharmacy to buy some medications for her.
When large number (not in hundreds, seriously large number of people in millions) of people lie together with a common goal, can setup a regime around a empty area surrounded by four walls (not allow any inside) just by showing it as occupied by a high govt. official or even a head of a country or a wealthy business man, under "believe us or else ......" paradigm of governance, .............................
Question and a point to ponder is, will such regimes be acceptable, will such regimes be legitimate and will they be the interest of commoners. Something to think about.
Regardless of what the baggage tags are today, they were based on perhaps 80 years old technology to print baggage tags by the last name of the travellers. Initially air travel was limited to western developed countries and such name issues were not critical, moreover, those who were in traveling circle n the early years were not baggage thieves and did NOT take advantage of such name issues. In the recent years air travel has become very common even in the third world countries as well, where people might take advantage of such name issues due to high poverty levels and steal bags, or perhaps may even falsely accuse right ful owners to steal bags. People are commonly known by the first name. A traveler named
"Queuety, Peabody" will most likely be commonly known as "Peabody" but baggeg tag will be printed as "Queuety Peabody" (missing comma), so the on lookers/self appointed vigilantes around the baggage collection point might say or spread the word that "Peabody" stole a bag belonging to "Queuety". To avoid this issue airlines should print baggage tags by the first name as "Peabody Queuety" which may require programers work, a second method to avoid this issue without programmers, just by data entry could be to enter the name without a space and enter it twice as "PeabodyQueuety", "PeabodyQueuety" - as a result of this baggage tags will be printed as PeabodyQueuety PeabodyQueuety - Another reason among many reasons for missing or delayed Baggage would be if someone else other than the rightfull owner pickups the bag by the name of "Queuety" and "Peabody" will have missing bag, file a claim, air line will try to locate the bag etc. I have faced similar situations few times 25-35 years ago cira 1990 and 2001 (i.e. more than once) at Karachi airport and also at Ottawa airport that my suitcase was missing upon arrival, which was found/delivered few days later.
Two obvious risks of baggage tags printed with last name: (1) owner of the bag may be deemed as stealing the bag wrongfully. (2) bags may be stolen or picked up by another person by the similar partial name which results in unnecessary trouble and headache for the rightful owner of the bag. Therefore baggage tags must be generated by the first name and full name.
Since I was born and raised in different land, different from every point of view and my country of birth was classified as third world country, many of my habits were very different than the people born and raised in developed western countries. My first opportunity to live independently, outside of my birth environments in a developed western country was in 1981 in Eindhoven Netherlands. Among many, one of the useful habits/way of living, I learned was to make eye contact with people when talking to them face to face. Prior to that it was hard for me to make eye contact while talking to people specially with elders, requires confidende to do so. But over the years norms in the western countries have changed and making eye contact with people while talking is considered unacceptable perhaps because it involves looking at the face of the person while making eye contact. For illetrate, untrained, people with malicious intentions, people with lack of college education, connected with position of power, eye contact during conversation is called "looking" like "touching" which may be interpreted as sexual intentions. I wonder what was right and what was wrong, was it right in underdeveloped countries or developed western countries.
Such people as mentioned above should be trained to understand when it would be considered sexual and when it would not be considered sexual, as retail environments, or parties etc. it is public knowledge that people learn such skills during college education as part of growing up, always, not new. They make such sounds "looking", "touching" etc to spread and pass around a negative word and build negative momentum against some one (called target) with malicious intentions, mafia activity.
When a name was written in comma format, fraud makers can not split the name as first and last because there was no space in between. But if a name was written without comma format with a space in between, fraud makers can split the name to induce ambiguity by not using the complete name, there brain stops at the first space in between. Perhaps space in between makes them think other combinations of the names for their gain.
I am not sure how frequently people use various features of operating/accessing a bank account these days after the invention of internet and apps to access personal bank accounts, in particular the use of phone to access some information. During the past 20 years it was (a bad) experienced by me that pin and passwords which are essential to get such access, fail suddenly. It was not always due to customer related issues or forgetting the pin/password. It was certainly due to some kind of human intervention which makes these pin password invalid and access to account stops. Industry should look into such issues and make these temper proof and robust. Account holders/owner should check all the features on regular basis, even if they don't use them on regular basis to make sure that none of the features were blocked, which may be become a complicated matter in difficult situations. Apps and on-line internet access to these accounts also stops due to unkown problems, which in my opinion would be due to human intervention at some point in authentication process.
Relevant agencies should train public masses to develop property understanding about certain precautions they hear or read on the news channels etc. One such example about "SIM swap", when Masses do not understand what this means they come up with hypothetical interpretations. Not sure what the law makers meant, but being a technical person my interpretation is that when sim was done with another owner of the sim to use tgan it would be or may be a challenge for lawenforcement to determine certain things. But if a person who owns more than one sim and swaps within his own phones for testing/evaluation or trouble shooting purpose than it should not be an issue from legal point of view, because same owner will be using even after swapping with in own phones etc.
When children play in school, in back yard or park they make each other or distribute certain roles to each other to make a temporary team organization just to play at that time, forget later. In adult life such roles become positions of power which grown up children distribute to each other to carry the same game further but in adult life they have to follow certain adult rules because than internationally community also watches them play the same game. In childhood game only parents or neighbours watch.
IF there were such people, who try to sabotage lawful immigrants and citizen's life and than use fancy words to justify their unlawful actions, are obviously against the interest of the country and Canadian authorities who are responsible for immigration, by negating the purpose of immigration and the relevant authorities. This kind of sabotage is not a enjoyable game of politics rather it was driven by preplanned malicious intents.
A reminder to those who are not used to live in a Country with National ID system for Identification. I was born in a country where people lived without a national ID or registration untill early 70s. That one set of ID per person means it can consist of several cards from various agencies of that country and name on the set of ID cards is one name which is composed of given name, middle name (optional) and family name (not considered as three names or three persons). Passport and ration card was the only national ID but not every one used it, it was very rare to posses a passport which was for business or travel purpose. Ration card was used as lD and list of family members living together in a household. Passport and NIC (National ID card) used full name method as one field (probably due to lack of use of databases/computers for record keeping, handwritten forms did not split names either), first name and last name method was not used. However, when travelling overseas or completing paper work / applications for western countries, first name and last was required to complete the paper work and I started writing "Khalid" in the first name field and " Mahmood" in the last name field. This was based on my observation that airlines used to issue a boarding pass to me with a slash (forgot forward or backward) between my name as "Mahmood/Khalid" (in Ontario a comma was used as "Mahmood, Khalid" on my Driver's licence).
Since women from certain parts of the Eastern countries criticize men's bahaviour (not for positive reasons, but with the intentions to bring people down) living in western countries to make a fool of the system, to gain, to black mail and to extract benefits. As a man living in the same society, I have a right to criticise their (i.e. women's) bahaviour. Although these women and children live in western countries but do not practice local life style and criticise those who practice local life style/ways of living. Perhaps due to lack of necessary education, or no education at all.
After the closure of Target Branded retail stores in Canada, if people were looking for Target means they were looking for prey, but in cities and urban area metropolis there were no animals, so who were they looking for a prey, answer was very obvious. A rocket science educational degree was not required to guess the answer. Answer is Human beings as Targets.
(Thanks for inserting the word by breaking into my phone. You can grease my palm).
If someone mentions in a conversation at present (i.e. now) or at the onset of adult age about someone's imperfections and mistakes of 2 decades before, which were made by the person during early age, infancy and as a baby, does not mean that those mistakes were made as a grown up adult, simply means that people hearing were retarded, did not know the context and were not paying attention, were Street sweepers and had malicious intentions in collecting such information. A useful relevant reminder would be that infants and babies do not know what is safe and what is not, they can even put their hand in fire or pickup a burning piece of coal out of curiosity or to learn about their surroundings.
Dietary requirement: (rent fully paid, and please do not break into my phone to show irrelevant messages/prompts).
Dietary requirements and needs is different for human beings at different stages of life, such as new born babies, infants, toddlers, teenagers, adult, and seniors etc.
Operations Research on human beings with minutest details must not be and should not be used for commercial or any other use. Operations research in minutest details may be of some use for commercial work such production lines, optimization etc. (like in industiral processes etc.) to save on nickels, dimes and cents. OR perhaps someone wants to use such data for AI or Robotics without paying for it to the research participants or the human beings impacted by such stresses caused by the spies and unauthorized data collectors. Or third possibility may be "malicious intentions", like they used to show in movies to cause harm to people that they can not compete with and feel threatened because of their guilt and crimes.

When I was growing up in my country of birth in 60s and 70s it was tough and depresding at times, for reasons well known to everyone, was not secret. I learned by reading, watching listenibg that people preferred to go western countries to gain confidence, financial independence and to learn how to be a better person. Second choice was Saudi Arabia etc. Perhaps it was just a deception that people gain deception, prosperity by going to western countries, because of my personal experiences and where people try to bring others down, break spirit and imprison for non-criminal vested interest reasons for personal gains.
It appears to me that new kids in town (perhaps from Gen Z) were playing Harry Potter in real life and they consider themself as one of the characters of the fiction. According to web research results, Gen Z was born between 1997 and 2012 and is considered the first generation to have largely grown up using the internet, modern technology, social media and HarryPotter.
Concept of Help in retail and service industry:
If the above mentioned industries resolved a problem which happened due to customer/user's negligence or shortcomings than I consider that help to over come customers shortcomings/negligence. But if the above mentioned industries resolve a problem which happened due to industry shortcomings/negligence/defects then it was not help, but they say "help". Such situations cause inconvenience (and may even lead to legal complications and losses) for the customers/users/consumers. Something to think about. Industry should look into such situations when staff uses the word "help" incorrectly. They use the word "help" to do their "job" and to carry out their "duties".
Those who committ crimes and frauds under some one else's ID/name and use fancy words to make a fool of naive people and say that they use other's life, why dont they they use street sweepers life or a medical doctor's life or a famous politician's life such as president etc., why don't they find another person with the same name as on their IDs and than say look we use our own life. Is their own life so worth less, if that was true than that's why they use other's life to extend their own life and committ crimes sugar coated with fancy words and sugar coated reasoning involving higher ups. Assuming if it was true (the theory) what they were saying about using someone else's life for their benefit, so was it practiced only by large group of people connected to position of powers and using others assets and money OR can other simple commoners ordinary people also use others life for benefit without paying for the usage of others life. Obviously NO, it is just a sugar coated crime to say that.
Three components of bill payments, one components is the user to make the payment and the other components is money provider to make the payment. I handle handle all the components of it myself. Another component is the user/owner of the services which generates the bill, and bank facilitates in remittance of the money to the services or products (company).
In a tall residential housing building each apartment is a separate unit. If all the units were occupied independently by people of same profession or same skills as a coincidence (not by design), buildings will not be considered or will not become a organization or a company or a factory. They may be considered as a colony of some sort. Each unit in a apartment building has a kitchen and each unit cooks food, building does not become a food factory. Each apartment does some non- professional perspnal cleaning, but building does not become a cleaning company. Nearly all tall buildings with hundreds of apartments bed and medications, but are not considered hospitals. In the past before high rise buildings, colonies were at the ground level spread across over large area of land, now days colonies are vertical in high rises buildings. Movements of people can be easily seen in horizontal communities on the ground when people visit each other, but in vertical communities of tall buildings such movements are not visible.
When people buy used automobiles or anything else, new owners donot become family to the previous owner. Divorced/separated people can not be shown living together if they buy/own used vehicle or anything else from other spouse or another relative.
When power and authority gets to their head people do wrong without realizing it because everyone claps and sneezes in harmony with the wrong doers in return for material gains, after a long time like 2 or 3 decades latee when they come down due to natural deterioration, more frauds by others and realize the past mistakes than they further come up with more frauds to justify their past wrong doings instead of accepting the mistakes and wrong doings of the past. A matter of egotism and class system.
Good and Bad for people born and raised in Eastern culture and for people born and raised in western culture are not the same, so a conversation will not be synchronized and will not be well understood and is bound to result in disputes when these words were used by people of different cultures and different educational background as well. Even, In the same culture people have different views about good and bad based on their educational and professional back ground, backward, modern, and age maturity because of life experiences etc. etc.
After watching some prog on YouTube, thought came to my mind that countries which were established based on certain political idealogies and movements must be audited regularly by some independent organizations or United Nations to make sure they were on track and conform with the reasons and idealogies of their creation.
