Exactly how were medieval bridges built in Europe? Before steam engines, cranes, bulldozers, etc.
In 1357, construction of this bridge in Prague began and would take over 50 years to complete. This visual animation shows it all in elegant detail, step by step.
(No audio descriptions or subtitles on this one.)

Veritasium on light bulbs, obsolescence and repairability: "This is why we can't have nice things"
Reminds me of that Mrs Kearns interview in Shutter Island.

I don't know the world anymore.
They tell me there are... televisions?
Voices and faces, coming from a box. — He? — I hear enough voices already!

"20,000 metal boxes carrying goods"
I love this unpretentious and dull phrasing, because of course how else would you describe this if it weren't so normal, e.g. to someone a century ago?
