The Pont du Gard is one of my favourite Roman artefacts anywhere. Built in the first century CE, this elevated aqueduct was constructed without mortar, and is about 275 m long and 50 m high. The total fall across the structure is only 2.5 cm - it truly is an engineering marvel. The protuding stones were used in construction to secure formwork and scaffolding.

@RickGaehl if you can, go to Segovia, best without looking pictures first.

Is that this one? If so, I was apparently there in 1980 🙄. It's a wonderful structure but the setting can't compare with the Pont du Gard.

@RickGaehl Love to visit Pont Du Gard. It's an impressive Roman construction, and also a lovely place to go for a swim!

STRAPPARE UN “SÌ” COSTA SOLO 25 CENTESIMI AL LITRO
@news
*La buona notizia interessa anche gli innamorati e i semplici invaghiti, che non sanno a quale stratagemma far ricorso per veder accettata la rispettiva pretesa. Chi ha paura di un rifiuto alla richiesta “mi vuoi sposare” o più prosaicamente “me la dai” adesso sa che un SI ha una quotazione ufficiale.

@silverpill@mitra.social Fair point. I'm probably biased by spending most of my time in the JavaScript and TypeScript ecosystem, where this pattern is hard to avoid. TypeScript itself being the elephant in the room doesn't help.

Energia, lo shock italiano viene da lontano
Gli attacchi iraniani al Qatar potrebbero ridisegnare il mercato globale del GNL per anni. L'Europa soffre, ma in modo disomogeneo. L'Italia è la più esposta, le "soluzioni" di breve termine sono vincolate
