“And as a symbol of our independence, we will say the month first instead of the date. March 12th instead of the 12th of March, October 3rd instead of the 3rd of October, etc.”

“And July 4th instead of 4th of July, sir?”

“No. That one stays.”

Y’all, this is hysterical. Everyone in the south will identify.

[World of Engineering @engineers_feed]

The Hoover Dam was completed in 1936.

Its concrete is still curing.

Concrete doesn't "dry." It undergoes a chemical reaction called hydration — calcium silicate crystals grow and interlock over decades.

In thin pours, hydration completes in weeks.
In mass concrete — pours measured in thousands of cubic yards — the reaction continues for centuries.

The Hoover Dam contains 3.3 million cubic yards of concrete.
The deepest internal sections have never fully hydrated.

Engineers knew this when they built it.
They designed around it — using cooling pipes, joint systems, and a pour sequence that let each section partially cure before the next was added.

The dam gets marginally stronger every year.
It will reach peak strength sometime around the year 2500.

Something built by humans in 1936 will still be actively becoming what it was designed to be in 2500.

That's what engineering for permanence looks like.

No longer a ‘conspiracy theory’

Online retailers are accessing your data and then adjusting prices for items based on that data

Airlines are being caught adjusting prices based on data too

“This holiday season, you and your neighbor could be shopping for the exact same item and pay different prices — surveillance pricing is and how your personal data plays a role.

You may be shopping for gifts from the comfort of your couch, but stores can still see who you are.

Most of these companies are charging you a different price based on some data they have about you. It could be your location, it could be your proximity to the store, it could be your shopping history, knowing that you bought a product previously and are willing pay for it again.”

“Consumer watchdog president Jamie Court says surveillance pricing is nearly impossible to avoid — Court says his organization has evidence all the major retailers use personal algorithms to nudge a price up or down, targeting data from your Amazon cart, Uber rides, or even the brand of laptop you're using to shop”

“For those traveling for the holidays. Airlines will charge you a different price depending upon how many times you go to the website.

“Currently, there is no federal regulation for companies that use surveillance pricing. We reached out to the FTC”

Yesterday at church the Bible readings started on page 66-67 of the missal, and my 5-year-old went absolutely nuts repeating "six seven" like 10 times. And now I think we need to make this narrow exception to the first amendment and ban these numbers forever.
