I was worried about leaving my CI pipelines red over the weekend (I didn't). Then I saw the local construction site's workers left for the week leaving a massive puddle of wet concrete all over the ground (it's fine).

How much does it take to hold one tram junction's worth of overhead line? 9 tons of counterweight per pole, apparently.

Umarell is the Italian word for retired men who spend their time watching, and sometimes commenting on, construction sites or roadwork.

The word originated in Bologna and in the local dialect umarèl means “little man”. It was coined in 2005 by writer Danilo Masotti.

If you’ve traveled to Italy, you may have noticed small groups of older men watching over traffic or construction sites and never shying away from offering their advice. They were named in Bologna but exist in cities and towns throughout Italy #umarell #Italy #culture #travel

A friend recently pointed out this fantastic phenomenon:

"Umarell are men of retirement age who spend their time watching construction sites, especially roadworks – stereotypically with hands clasped behind their back and offering unwanted advice to the workers. Its literal meaning is "little man" (also umaréin). The term is employed as lighthearted mockery or self-deprecation."

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umarell

And then today, in Amsterdam, I actually saw one for real! #Umarell

A bit of a shame that i didn’t have time just now to watch the construction site here.

I really would have liked to see how they stick the batteries into the bottom of a new building.

“To umarell is to take an interest in the built environment – the environment that our species creates, and in which most of us spend most of our time. An umarell turns their attention to that environment's creation, taking time to appreciate the materials, machines, and muscles from which it emerges.” #umarell https://www.scopeofwork.net/il-campionato-mondiale-di-umari/
