Check out this slide they’re installing in the New Museum. I seriously think that slides like this should be a requirement in every building in
the worldNew York City. I think it would solve many problems related to ppl thinking they’re better than everyone else (“hey buddy — take the slide and then we’ll talk”) and also allow for a new WPA as buildings were retrofitted. I’m exaggerating here, obviously, but only a little. The only bad thing is that you’re going to have to wear a helmet and pads — at least on this one — which :(via Curbed
I am 24 years old and a graduate with my Bachelors Degree in Mechanical Engineering from The New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT).
Why Am I an Engineer?
Because, it gives me the chance to build a dream.
Wikipedia:
Engineers work to develop economical and safe solutions to practical problems, by applying mathematics, scientific knowledge and ingenuity while considering technical constraints. The term is derived from the Latin root "ingenium," meaning "cleverness". The industrial revolution and continuing technological developments of the last few centuries have changed the connotation of the term slightly, resulting in the perception of engineers as applied scientists. The work of engineers is the link between perceived needs of society and commercial applications.
