The chair easily switches from standing position to sitting and walking — so you have a seat wherever you are, whenever you need it. @IrmaRaste@twitter.com #engineering

Looking for a #mentor/teacher type person with good knowledge of mechanical #engineering.

Currently, my primary interest is the project shown in the attached image, but others will follow if I can pull this off.

For starters, hinges will obviously have to be re-designed.

I can improve the design to be theoretically better, but I don't know enough about materials and production methodologies to guarantee a feasible production path.

Everything I design will be open-source.

Boosts appreciated.

The interface between #science and #engineering is a complex and fraught one. Now that I think of it... one is a view of objective reality as far from human context as possible and the other is a view of objective reality as close to human context as possible.

Simone Giertz, the incredible woman who makes "shitty robots" on youtube has an operable, non-cancerous but still very scary brain tumor. Here is the video about it: youtube.com/watch?v=tpa4kp4lK6

Maybe y'all can show some support/love and also just watch her videos, because they are great and she deserves the views/ad money. #ladiesinscience #shittyrobots #womenintech #engineering #chronicillness

I understand the #engineering reason for #safety but the point here is the lack of transparency of the decision process.

I am sharing this because it took forever to do. Not because the design is complicated, but because some pieces need to be exact distances from other pieces and they were all moved relative to each other for this and I only had an old version instead of actual measurements. I need to keep better notes.

This hasn't been officially announced yet but there's an upcoming event in #SanFrancisco for #women in #technology, #engineering and #security. The name of the event is the Day of #Shecurity. Here is the flyer that will be going to #BSidesSF this weekend.

If you or someone you know is a #woman in the industry, then you should definitely check out this event as it's for a very good cause. 11% is pathetically low! We need more women in the industry!
