Lots of top secret workers

Most of my work

You work? When do you find time for that?

The office


A heart being kept alive for transplant (not one of ours but we have the same kit)


The research MRI I use for Science over in Oxford. It is a three tesla system, which is about enough electromagnetic power to lift up a bus. The higher field strength allows us to perform experiments that show up chemical reactions in the heart using nuclear magnetic resonance.


An ECMO system (extra corporeal membrane oxygenation) - how we keep folk with kippered hearts going until they can get a transplant. We use a centrimag system with magnetically levitated pumps which reduces blood clot formation: two pumps here, one for the right heart and one for the left, along with an oxygenator to supplement the work of the lungs. You can about see the red line on the monitor, which is blood pressure, should swing up and down with the heart beating but here is flat because the flow of blood is continuous.

Muchly impressive stuff from the forumites

I've contributed in some way to these being quieter, louder, better or cheaper; sometimes a lot, sometimes an nth.

Most of the last 13yrs I've been digitising culture and heritage at a number of places across New Zealand - setting up projects, building studios, running teams etc. So basically every high profile historic set of visuals here in the last decade. Alongside that also been developing knowledge and capacity in digital preservation (taking digital files and systems and making them last forever).

Except as a sector it's toxic as fuck and I finally broke this year and moved on.

So now I work for a software company who makes stuff for that sector and act as the product owner for all their web products. So now, take your pick from over a thousand galleries, libraries, museums or archives around the world (mainly NZ, Australia, UK, South Africa, US) - we help their collections be on the internet.

Not sure if related to your stuff KD but the Triceratops Horridus exhibtion at the Melbourne museum has some incredible interactive 3D displays running from scans of the fossils. Deeply cool (and fun for kids big and small).

I working in the Research Computing Team at Leeds Uni - https://arcdocs.leeds.ac.uk/welcome.html
We support mostly researchers and a few post grads using the HPC systems, general research software and writing their own code.
We look after 2 HPC systems with about 10000 cores between them.
This is one of them, you can see the custom cabinet mounted coolers:

So researchers can do science like:

One of the rare cases where our team/systems were explicitly acknowledged.

As MickN doesn't post here anymore, I'll put this here on his behalf...

Pretty tame compared to what's been posted already.

Decided to add mortgage advise after being insurance only for 12 years. Eldest daughter qualified in 2020 and has been working with me.

Because we're not technically classed as local (although we do work from a shop), we get all sorts of clients from those buying holiday homes, buy to lets, awkward properties of unusual construction, new builds and just normal remortgage stuff all across the UK.

I was nervous as to whether my daughter would enjoy it, but she's really gotten into it and even volunteered for networking (I hate networking so she doesn't get that from me!)

I did this :

and I'm currently working on Sky's Order Tracking (you need to have a Sky account with an active order to see anything!).

Probably the biggest thing I worked on was the Welsh Birth Notification Service when I was contracting for NHS Wales. My software allocates an NHS number to every new born baby in Wales.

I play with cool cars every day

More explanification on this image please.

Its Mike and Andy Jordans Austin A40 on the rolling road, the engine is built by the guy in the other half of my unit.

judging by the focus of the picture I thought you'd installed a rather nice boot catch.

Some of the more interesting projects in chronological order:




(just putting the new cranes on among other things, the actual thing was built when I was still a nipper!)






(just the land reclamation part, didn't put the sheds on it)


(did all sorts on here, conveniently Google maps is still just about where it was when I left, I was responsible for or involved in the majority of what you can see in the picture and a lot that you can't too)

Picture 3/4 was probably my favourite project even though it's small, can't beat working with the Dutch!

Looks like you've handled some pretty large erections

That's pretty cool Duncs - I didn't know you did that sort of thing.

I did Civil Engineering and specialised in Hydrological and Marine Engineering - Never worked as an Engineer mind but loved the subject

Whereas I did Aerospace Engineering for my Bachelors at Uni. *shrug*

I've moved into the utilities world now, which is considerably less glamorous.

@Gavster I'm certainly no stranger to it.

[Gavster]

There's some very cool engineering and sciency stuff here, quite a few of you work in projects that keep the world running.

I make some money by researching and writing reports like these:



And articles like this https://foodmatterslive.com/article/bac ... -stopping/

People have started commissioning video content creation, which is really fun, creative and well paid, and there's several new opportunities appearing for the start of the new year which is great news. I haven't hit 100k followers on my TikTok yet, which was my target for the end of the year. Need to pull something special out of the hat in the next six weeks!

Also a trickle of cash rolling in from my eBay shop, freelance design work, other random consultancy work, and something else I'm forgetting.
