<p>Today's episode is, again, with Mr Calum Douglas, the second part of the conversation that we had. In this part 2 we actually talk about the main topic that is Calum's book: The Secret Horse Power Race. If you haven't watched the previous episode, it is OK. The book is a very education and beautifully illustrated book about the technological race that happen during the second world war</p><br/><p>We discussed how Calum ended up writing a book and some interesting anecdotes of his years of research into the topic.</p><br/><p>We also discussed bit what were the learnings from the book, beyond of the technical aspects of it. The personalities that shaped it and, without giving away too much of the book - the reasons why one side won and not the other. I really enjoyed this conversation.</p><br/><p>In the end, there is not a single side of the history that is bad or good, or smart/stupid. It is very nuance and there are multi-dimensional perspectives that very much apply to today's world.</p><br/><p>Once again, this has been one of my favorite episodes so, please check it our Calum's social media and his book.</p><br/><p><br/></p><br/><p>Calum’s website: <a href="https://www.calum-douglas.com/" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://www.calum-douglas.com/</a><br/><br/>Calum’s company: <a href="https://www.scorpion-dynamics.com/" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://www.scorpion-dynamics.com/</a> <br/><br/>Where to buy the book: <a href="https://www.mortonsbooks.co.uk/product/view/productCode/15057DB" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://www.mortonsbooks.co.uk/product/view/productCode/15057DB</a></p><br/><p>Entropy to Work, (almost) every Tuesday on your streaming platforms !<br/><br/>Website and blog: <a href="https://www.fluxuseng.com/e2w" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://www.fluxuseng.com/e2w</a><br/><br/>YouTube Channel: <a href="https://cutt.ly/WzMd2Wm" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://cutt.ly/WzMd2Wm</a><br/><br/>Spotify: <a href="https://lnkd.in/eiVgQE2" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://lnkd.in/eiVgQE2</a><br/><br/>Google Podcasts: <a href="https://cutt.ly/hzMfv3X" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://cutt.ly/hzMfv3X</a></p><br/><p><br/></p><br/><br/>--- <br/><br/>Send in a voice message: <a href="https://anchor.fm/fluxus-eng/message" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://anchor.fm/fluxus-eng/message</a> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.

<p>Welcome to Entropy to Work, a podcast about technology engineering and culture. We are on episode number 10!</p><br/><p>Today's guest is a mechanical engineer specialist in piston engine design and development. In his spare time, he researches and write about Second World War era engine technology and assist organizations restoring warbird engines. A very humble way that Mr Calum Douglas describes himself in his website. He is the author of the amazing book “The secret horsepower race: western front fighter engine development”.</p><br/><p>It is a very education and beautifully illustrated book about the technological race that happened during the second world war. The amount of research and quality in the book is absolutely amazing but also the way Calum's put the book together, telling the histories of the engineers behind those developments on both sides of the war is just amazing.</p><br/><p>And, not surprisingly, the man behind book is absolutely fascinating as well. We ended up talking for two hours straight and turned off with the feeling we still barely scratched the surface. That's why I will be breaking this episode in 2 parts - the first one is where we talk about Calum technical and academic background, professional experiences and some thoughts on current engineering challenges.</p><br/><p>The second part is where we talk about the book, how he ended up doing it, the research that it involved and some of the main lessons from it.</p><br/><p>Calum’s website: <a href="https://www.calum-douglas.com/">https://www.calum-douglas.com/</a><br/><br/>Calum’s company: <a href="https://www.scorpion-dynamics.com/">https://www.scorpion-dynamics.com/</a> <br/><br/>Where to buy the book: <a href="https://www.mortonsbooks.co.uk/product/view/productCode/15057DB">https://www.mortonsbooks.co.uk/product/view/productCode/15057DB</a></p><br/><p>Entropy to Work, (almost) every Tuesday on your streaming platforms !</p><br/><p>Website and blog: <a href="https://www.fluxuseng.com/e2w">https://www.fluxuseng.com/e2w</a><br/><br/>YouTube Channel: <a href="https://cutt.ly/WzMd2Wm">https://cutt.ly/WzMd2Wm</a><br/><br/>Spotify: <a href="https://lnkd.in/eiVgQE2">https://lnkd.in/eiVgQE2</a><br/><br/>Google Podcasts: <a href="https://cutt.ly/hzMfv3X">https://cutt.ly/hzMfv3X</a></p><br/><br/>--- <br/><br/>Send in a voice message: <a href="https://anchor.fm/fluxus-eng/message" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://anchor.fm/fluxus-eng/message</a> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.

<p>This week's episode of the Entropy to Work Podcast is a REALLY fun conversation with my dear friend Mr Martin Vincent Bloedorn - Software Developer at HEIDENHAIN Numeric Eindhoven B.V.. In parallel he still is the Embedded Software Engineer at Cold Chain Vision - which is really a humble way of describing he creating a product from zero to mass production in China (something we talk in the podcast about).</p><br/><p>Martin is for sure one of the smartest people I ever had the privilege of working and knowing.</p><br/><p>We talked a bit about his background, the transitioning from mechatronics to be a software engineer in a big company, work rules (that apply to life in general), writing code, product development and other topics.</p><br/><p>Still we managed to barely scratch the surface of many topics we still want to talk about - such as AI, automation paradox and others - that will be for another conversation, hopefully in person !</p><br/><p>You can get in touch with Martin in the links below:<br/><br/>Website: <a href="https://martinvb.com/wp/" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://martinvb.com/wp/</a><br/><br/>LinkedIN: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/martinbloedorn/" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/martinbloedorn/</a></p><br/><p>Hope you guys enjoy this conversation as much as I did !</p><br/><p>Entropy to Work, (almost) every Tuesday in your streaming platforms !</p><br/><p>Website and blog: <a href="https://www.fluxuseng.com/e2w" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://www.fluxuseng.com/e2w</a><br/><br/>YouTube Channel: <a href="https://cutt.ly/WzMd2Wm" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://cutt.ly/WzMd2Wm</a><br/><br/>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/3C17Hz4XoW36OeDT4Tdad5" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/3C17Hz4XoW36OeDT4Tdad5</a> <br/><br/>Google Podcasts: <a href="https://cutt.ly/hzMfv3X" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://cutt.ly/hzMfv3X</a> <br/><br/>Anchor: <a href="https://anchor.fm/fluxus-eng" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://anchor.fm/fluxus-eng</a> <br/><br/>Breaker: <a href="https://www.breaker.audio/entropy-to-work\" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://www.breaker.audio/entropy-to-work\</a><br/><br/>Pocket Casts: <a href="https://pca.st/yfq5b3jm" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://pca.st/yfq5b3jm</a><br/><br/>RadioPublic: <a href="https://radiopublic.com/entropy-to-work-GZxYMa" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://radiopublic.com/entropy-to-work-GZxYMa</a></p><br/><br/>--- <br/><br/>Send in a voice message: <a href="https://anchor.fm/fluxus-eng/message" class="linkified" target="_blank">https://anchor.fm/fluxus-eng/message</a> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
