    Wow, the monks are not messing around either, they built a full monastery with cathedral and all in gothic style! https://newmountcarmelfoundation.org/building-a-mountain-mon...

    Oooh this is cool. Create gothic-esque designs in stone construction using CNC. I like the apology right at the top: "medieval builders were always on the forefront of technology". Word.

    Anyone who digs this should take a look at the art (and process) of Barry X Ball. https://www.barryxball.com/ https://www.instagram.com/barryxballstudio/

    For a second I thought the guy at the computer is the CNC statue.

    This is the same group of monks that run mystic monk coffee. I'm very fond of the Paradiso blend and am currently warming up to the thanksgiving blend though it wasn't my favorite at the start of the bag.

    When AI wipes out programming jobs over the next few years, do you think we will see a revival in the number of young men going into monkhood?

      I think robotically driven historic building renovation is one of the safest jobs.

      1. Loads of pent up historic demand 2. Work is complex, sensitive and physical. 3. There's more history every day!
