This sent me down a fun rabbit hole on structural failures. As a software engineer, I've always been kind of sad that the product of my work is not something you can touch, like with capital E Engineering fields. But on the other hand, I'm grateful that (at least with the software I work on) nobody's going to die if I make a dumb mistake.

I'm glad you seem to have had a good day there :)
Jesus Christ the guy just went to work the next day. Thoughts and prayers to the victims I guess.
