Canadian Engineers? They Have a Ring About Them - How can you spot an engineer? It can be tricky, but it is a little easier in Canad... - https://hackaday.com/2023/08/10/canadian-engineers-they-have-a-ring-about-them/ #professionalengineering #hackadaycolumns #ironring #canada

Since I've started work I've noticed that no one else wears the ring in the office. I guess it's electronics so maybe things are different in Civil or Mech practices? After all, it's way harder to accidentally kill someone with a cloud server than with a bridge.

Although, it's way easier to inconvenience (or mislead, or confuse) people in the digital realm than in meat-space. And I think that those softer harms are probably under-acknowledged.
