The Kid Should See This 🌈🪐✨

Mathematician Hannah Fry's performs a #physics demonstration with thread and bricks! This elegant experiment shows how the same number of threads can either fail catastrophically or support heavy loads, depending on one simple factor. The #video explains the #engineering that keeps elevators safely suspended and bridges standing. 🧵🧱

PodverseOpen doesn't Always Mean Accessible - My Open Source Experience PodcastBy definition, open source projects and communities are supposed to be accessible. And while the code is always openly available, the remaining parts of the ecosystem might be further out of reach than you would thinkIn this episode of the My Open Source Experience Podcast, Michael Dexter, Ildiko and Phil explore the open source ecosystem from two perspectives: business and accessibility. Businesses rely on open source software, soemtimes unknowinlgy, all around the globe as digital infrastructure doesn't exist without it any more, and yet, making it integral part of the business strategy is a constant struggle for companies. And yet, even when companies and individuals reach the point of investing their time, money and resources into open source projects it appears to be more difficult than it is supposed to be. Michael, Ildiko and Phil are discussing these challenges and digging into how to address them.Learn more about:- The relationship between open source and business interests- The fragility of funding in the open source ecosystem- The role of open source foundations- Stages of involvement in open source projects- Maintainer shortage and how to bring people (back) into open source projects Hosted on Acast.

A local auction house is offering detailed #Boeing-built scale #models of the Delta 4 and Delta 4 Heavy #rockets.

I'm curious what these will go for! I won't be bidding myself. I mean, yeah I want them – but honestly, where would I put them? These things are huge!

Scale model of the Delta 4 Heavy rocket, placed outside beside a concrete and chain link fence with a busy road in the background. The model is at least 1.5 times the height of the fence.

A model of a Man Engine in the #Mining #Museum in #SanktAndreasberg - an elevator of sorts which allowed miners to get into a mine and out again far faster than by climbing ladders.

I really encourage you to read the Wikipedia entry to understand the concept. And then you can inflict this on your #ttrpg campaign the next time the player characters delve into an old mine. :D

This is extremely rad. Had no idea about it, and had always wished for a Hippocratic Oath for engineering. How much better the world would be if we had fewer engineers building things like bombs and Facebook.

Engineers Canada100 years of the iron ring: A symbol of an engineer’s commitment | Engineers CanadaIf you know a Canadian engineer, you may have noticed them wearing a ring on their pinky finger. Far from a fashion accessory, the iron ring symbolizes an obligation, or verbal commitment, that engineering graduates make—a tradition known as The Calling of an Engineer. The Obligation Ceremony has been modernized and updated in honour of its 100th anniversary this year.
