Electronic touch pads that cost just a few dollars and solar cells that cost the same as roof shingles are one step closer to reality today.
Researchers in the University of Minnesota’s College of Science and Engineering and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colo., have...
Swedish and Spanish engineers have created a system of sensors that detects fruit odours more effectively than the human sense of smell. For now, the device can distinguish between the odorous compounds emitted by pears and apples. Researchers from the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV...
MIT engineers have created genetic circuits in bacterial cells that not only perform logic functions, but also remember the results, which are encoded in the cell's DNA and passed on for dozens of generations. The circuits, described in the Feb. 10 online edition of Nature Biotechnology, could...
I am a civil engineering major and want to get back at a friend of mine that is mechanical. I just need a clever comment or joke. He has been on a roll with some little lame pokes. I know we are nerds.
I'm currently a Silicon Valley girl studying Computer Science but I also want to experience South American, German, Chinese, and Japanese cultures. I would love to live ~1 year in each country and learn each language. But being from the SV, I feel like Software/UX Engineers tend to stay at their...
explodes outside? Is that what happened to #1 ?
This hydrogen accumulates in the containment, but here is my main question -- how is it being produced?
Some kind of unspecified hot chemical reactions are going on? The hydrogen is a disintegration product?
Or is it mainly steam plus a little...
I'm about to start teaching an EFL class for engineers. It should be conversation based to increase fluency. What topics do you think would be most useful for engineers to talk about? Things especially related to work. Also what are some of the most common words and phrases used by engineers?
soft cellphone cases more protective? So the apple guy told me that the hard case offers better protection when dropping a phone, but my logical and always right brain thinks that this might not be the case. It seems like the more rubbery ones would absorb more of the force than those hard...
I'm a graphic designer. I don't know if it's like this anywhere else, but it seems like there's always subtle/bitter competition between designers and technicians. My friend brought this up
Designers = MAC
Engineers = PC
Designers = iPhone
Engineers = Droid
Designers = middle/fancy lifestyle...
What a coincidence: On June 23—exactly when you first reported about the iPhone 4's antenna problem, Apple posts multiple request for antenna engineers for the iPhone. Too late? Too soon? Let the conspiracy theories begin. More »

While this is really just a Honda ad, I had to share its charms with you. Because not only is the alleged Alec probably the most promising mind of his generation; he's likely husky and rejected by his peers. [Jalopnik]

Hi,
I know this may sound vague, but I wish to find a type of magnifying glass. It's like a handheld one: with a vertical handle, it has quite a small lens and has little torch to illuminate the object being seen. I've seen them before at an aerospace engineering factory, where technicians used...
