Sometimes I design ships. Most times I design how to design ships. Skeets not representative of employer or client policy. She/Her/Hers.
What’s the betting that something strangely similar to LCS will end up being proposed again. I.e. commercial derivative with lots of robots. But it definitely won’t be another LCS. DEFINITELY.

The concluding slide from my generative AI talk to the undergrads today, following on from a summary of some of the approaches, benefits and hazards of its use in their projects. Most people want to be Swole Doge, but can we really put the effort in to avoid becoming Cheems?

Some progress on the pre-CNGF design. A lot of speculation based on descriptions of other UK designs at the time. Still need to figure out what the long range radar was. And only a couple of forbidden geometries so far!

One for all the maritime nerds out there. In this photo (taken on Sunday) we're flying two different signals on the forward halyards.
For 1 point: identify the 4 individual flags
For 2 points: what is the port signal
For 5 points: what is the stbd signal
We're in Harwich for local bylaw purposes.

I am updating my AI talk with recent studies of its cognitive hazards and REALLY? Strong “right in front of my OSHA handbook” energy here.

The MSc group ship designs developed in the years I ran the UCL module. A fun few years.

Tag yourself. I’m “buoyant oscillating”
Because I love classification and a good diagram, I wanted to share this excellent look at types of naval mine.
From Chris O'Flaherty's "Naval Minewarfare" - the best primer on the subject.

after the 10th radioactive shrimp recall in 7 weeks, i decided to do some digging
little did i know it would lead me to an underreported industrial accident that may have released an airborne plume of radioactive debris over swaths of indonesia

What Is Really Going on With All This Radioactive Shrimp? - Consumer Reports
Here’s the latest on how shrimp and spices got contaminated with cesium-137, how the FDA has responded, and why consumers should not panic.

Rummaging through my Hipstaprints. One from when we got to play with a copper model. These are highly detailed models used to assess EM performance via exposure to frequency scaled RF radiation.
