TIL Spain’s S-80 submarine program designed subs that were 70 tonnes too heavy, and likely sink when submerged. Cost overruns to fix it are expected to reach $9 billion. The problem was traced back to an engineer misplacing a decimal point, and had been called the most expensive math error ever.

Twenty years ago I emailed makeup artist and horror movie icon Tom Savini to tell him that the monster he created for a 1984 episode of Tales from the Darkside had profoundly haunted my childhood. He replied with these photos of him creating it to assure my 7 year old inner self that it wasn’t real.

It's annoying when we walk through the same morning spider webs over and over again because it gets on us. But from the spiders point of view it must be devastating to have a 60 story tall Titan walkthrough your home destroying your livelihood and then try to kill you out of rage on a daily basis.
