_hbro··on I built an ROV to solve missing person cases
To send last messages before he kills himself? Call for help if he backs out?
_hbro··on I built an ROV to solve missing person cases
People have committed or failed suicide attempts in probably any way we can imagine.

> So where was he going? I saw two possibilities: either to Tikkakoski to visit his ex-girlfrind he was on the phone with or; just to drive around with a new powerful car, to shake off the heated phone call.

I don't understand how suicide isn't at the top of the list here. He was obviously very upset emotionally. He didn't care for his belongs other than his phone. He didn't care to steal someone's car or answer for it. He never shows up anywhere.

_hbro··on "Strong focus on aesthetics" contributed to collapse of Norway timber bridge
The idea that a "strong focus on aesthetics" contributed to the failure of a bridge doesn't make any logical sense. Employing a strong focus on aesthetics doesn't preclude also having the necessary focus on stability and safety. Bridges fail because they were not designed or engineered properly.
