‘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.

At the STACK25 conference earlier this month watched Sally Jordan present the keynote. I was very impressed and found this research paper from 2016. The co-author Tim Hunt is the main architect of the #Moodle #Quiz #engine and co-maintainer of the #STACK question type.

Deleting multiplayer from the Unreal engine can save memory

Another try of a procedural generated #engine sound, this time trying to catch an actual 'combustion' sound.

I think I'll split the project into:
engine sound lab (with some GUI around it)
the game (which uses sounds of the lab)

Imagine how unstable a fusion combustion engine would be?

The premise would be that you'd have 3 pistons, each feeding a crank shaft connected to a generator.

You'd also have this underwater or some other coolant as to siphon the heat away, maybe add a turbine to the shaft to help move the liquid away from the pistons.

The first combustion either blows up everything, rips the shaft apart, or provides just enough force to force the next piston to combust.

The TDG in 318 Words

Trying to explaining a new democracy in 318 words is like trying to explain the workings of an internal combustion engine by showing a connecting rod.

In other words, 318 words is not enough.

But here's my best effort:

Estoy haciendo un experimento con YaCy, un buscador p2p para indexar internet. Que sitios interesantes para escanear se les ocurren? Sitios que tengan info sin tener que loguearse, como bibilotecas, tutoriales, manuales, enciclopedias, conocimiento, tecnología, cultura, atre, literatura, etc. Comenten que enlaces les parecen importantes asi los voy agregando a la lista de crawl, quiero ver que se puede lograr. Monte un servidor dedicado exclusivamente a esto, a escanear internet, es medio un delirio, pero es tanta la basura que me tiran los disquebuscadores que me parece que me voy a montar el mio propio #yacy #p2p #buscadores #search #engine #internet #undernet
