Looked hard at our two letter word list. It has 'ch' on it. I did not know why. Turned to that page and found the definition 'chain' (the surveyor's measure).
Well! if obscure measures are in the dictionary, then what about the commoner ones?
Added 'km', 'kg' and 'kn', all in a mad rush, then the quite peculiar 'kp' - kilopond.
Nice work.

Rame: surplus fino al 2028 e una possibile correzione nel 2027 (Macquarie)
https://www.metallirari.com/rame-surplus-fino-2028-possibile-correzione-2027-macquarie/
Il rame corre, sostenuto da flussi legati ai possibili dazi statunitensi e dal momentum finanziario. Ma Macquarie rileva scorte ai massimi, domanda debole e surplus rilevanti fino al 2028. La tensione sui prezzi non coincide ancora con una reale penuria fisica.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🕷️🕸️ Researchers from #Macquarie University discovered a new ballista #spider species in #Queensland’s #CapeYork #rainforest that builds a spring-loaded web snare targeting green tree #ants.
When an ant bites the cone, tension lines fire it into the web at 1,367 m/s² – roughly 140 G – making this the most power-dense biological catapult known. The spider’s use of pheromone-mimicking silk represents a #hunting strategy not seen before in any #arachnid.

June 23, 1810: Governor Macquarie opens Australia’s first post office

This new book explains why your elderly parents’ retirement home, the nursery where you drop your children, or the company that pipes water into your kitchen is taken over by an increasingly intricate and deregulated industry.
If a private equity fund is "buying something using a lot a debt, [then] all of that debt is loaded onto the company that the private equity fund has acquired."
"Private equity has moved into care homes, housing, water, nurseries and other essential services."
"We have the power for it to be done otherwise."Hettie O’Brien: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAJKiVQZaks via @oscarjiminy

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🐝🔥 A new study of 95 native bee species across eastern #Australia shows that #bees nesting inside plant stems cannot escape extreme #heat.
Ground-nesting species burrow to stay cool, but stem-nesters have no insulation. #Macquarie University researchers found that #tropical bees face the highest risk, having already reached their thermal limits.

Follow My Photos on Pixelfed: https://pixelfed.social/p/douglaswelch/971488628521736034“Commissioned by Governor Lachlan Macquarie and built with convict labour, Hyde Park Barracks was the first convict barracks in the colony. Previously, convicts had been allowed to find their own accommodation, but by housing them in a barracks Macquarie hoped to increase their productivity and improve their moral character. The three-storey building with massive shingled roof and a simple yet striking façade was designed by convict architect Francis Greenway. So impressed was Macquarie with this design that he granted Greenway a full pardon”. – Museums of History NSW
