Generally speaking I do need AI boosters to understand that I’ve lost my career and future plans entirely to AI-based cost cutting. so any time you’re talking about tech you have to understand people whose livelihoods were destroyed by a thing they didn’t choose to adopt they’re gonna be prickly lol

procrastinating doing proper research on FCC certification for Witch Staff because I think there’s a 50% chance the FCC no longer meaningfully exists by the time we’re at that stage..

a lot of men seem to have a definition for “hard scifi” that can mostly be summed up as “almost all the characters are men, and said men get to feel smart about solving engineering problems” regardless of how realistic the technology actually is..

as a workshop safety officer you should be mindful in using environment-appropriate language: "awww did you have a little booboo?" ❎️ "awww did you have a little industrial accident?" ✅️

dyson came up with one good thing 17 years ago (cheap way of making a high power BLDC motor) and since then seemingly their only goal has been figuring out how to put it inside weirder and more unsuitable devices? headphones?? a fucking toothbrush???

I wonder what modern architecture and infrastructure would be like if we hadn’t been lucky with concrete having almost the same thermal expansion coefficient as steel, and inhibiting rust.. would everything be made of steel? would skyscrapers exist? would trains be the main mode of transport?

got reminded of the time a psychologist at the NHS trans kids GIC asked if I played with dolls when I was little, and answering “..no, but I was obsessed with making fairy wings in various materials and designs, then testing which worked best by jumping out of trees” (she did not like that answer)

nobody tells you how damn delicate the skin on your hands gets after ~5-6 years on estrogen, gloves are no longer optional for so many workshop tasks I’d do with my bare paws as a kid 🫠

I like to imagine people far in the future studying the hardware we put in space and on other planets, realising the thousands of names etched in silicon aren’t engineers, politicians, or scientists - just people fascinated with space I think they’ll find it cute, it’s endearingly human

I've noticed that 3D printers and CAD cause my physical fabrication skills* to atrophy - so I'm banning myself from digital fabrication for non critical problems for a while *questionable bodging skills

Erin Rose @erinrose.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

as an ex workshop safety officer I always carefully consider the risks of misusing a tool, think about every potential bad outcome, and then do it anyway if grievous injury isn’t one of them ..anyway I’m mostly recovered from when I welded while wearing crocs 4 months ago :)

boards I designed for an artist ~a year ago, now installed in the garden of a tiny gallery in London c:

a brick wall with small square junction boxes with transparent lids mounted to it - there are 9 of them, led matrix panels inside showing pretty patterns and text the artist designed.

there are some pretty flowering plants in the foreground.

I think the initial messy phase of open source hardware development should be public too, so I'm putting my source files where my mouth is :3 You probably shouldn't try to build it yet.. but you could! #WitchStaff codeberg.org/erinrose/Wit...

turns out starting estrogen and then mostly zoning out for 6 years until you become hot makes doing the rest of transition way easier! (do not try this at home!!)

gold star if you can guess what the <thing> I’ve been designing today while waiting for my landlord to show up for an inspection is

a render of a section of curved steel, with a small aluminium part attached. the part has a counterbored torx screw and a small hole below it.
