"A record-breaking tunnel is being built under the Baltic Sea between Denmark and Germany, which will slash travel times and improve Scandinavia's links with the rest of Europe.
Running for 18km (11 miles), the Fehmarnbelt will be the world's longest pre-fabricated road and rail tunnel."
‘Engineering marvel’ found in Scottish attic ‘one of three in world’
A rare #Victorian engine, one of only three on earth, has been found by accident in an #Edinburgh attic.
“Remarkably, this engine is the second-oldest surviving Crossley four-stroke #engine in the world and the oldest in Europe.
“Only two other examples exist, the oldest is housed at the Henry Ford Museum in Michigan, USA, and another in Denmark.

Ontario colleges and universities will receive a $750million boost from the Ontario government for 20,500 spaces in science and engineering programs each year, helping fill — but not close — a growing funding gap for schools. #STEM #ontario #university #college #students #canada #science #technology #engineering #math https://www.thestar.com/politics/provincial/ford-government-boosts-stem-education-funding-by-750m/article_98cae95a-ce47-4bdc-a5fd-547376b32032.html#:~:text=Star%20exclusive-,Ford%20government%20boosts%20STEM%20education%20funding%20by%20%24750M,schools%2C%20the%20Star%20has%20learned.
It’s cute watching Computer Science majors rewrite software that’s been around for over fifty years.
Like, don’t let anyone stop you from reinventing the wheel over and over and over frivolously or anything.

This kind of detail makes me very happy. Someone gave a fuck when they designed this.
The bolt is recessed so it doesn't poke into the rubber mat that goes on top, but because water can go there, they put a drain hole next to it, so it doesn't stay trapped in the recess forever and rusts the bolt.

Our godson was taking to crochet when we saw him in February. He's an engineer, and painstaking in his approach. Helen didn't like the idea of him learning on the yarn he'd bought himself so we sent some of Helen's yarn.
Now, at his work, it's Dungeons and Dragons night on Thursdays (it's that sort of business.) And Chris has turned into it a D&D AND crochet evening, as his colleagues have taken to crochet too.
