Imagine if the pyramids were built by the lowest bidder.

Just so you know it is usually the lowest qualified builder of spec. There are loads of problems in how contracts are rewarded this one is a talking point not really covering the issue. Like noting that someone dying of Covid is a bit sad. Ok, yeah it's true but there is a lot more going on here.

Survivorship bias.

Slaves vs slaves
The only difference is the masters don’t have to live down with the plebs anymore and can go literally anywhere else in the world and stay there.
Wait until space travel becomes more affordable :)

they've gone ahead and switched back to metric without telling us.

I don't think this crew will be building any pyramids any time soon.

It's like you're having a bad week and you have that one friend that is there to support you through thick and thin. Meanwhile, three of your other friends are patting you on the back saying, "Hey, buddy...tough break - hang in there, man. Gotta go!"

Anyone can make a pyramid that last forever, it takes a properly educated engineer to make a pyramid that barely stands with the fewest stone blocks.

While this is hella goofy, it looks like the bolts were already in place for a larger flange. And they just kinda… made do. Sorta.
Anchor bolts were already installed, and then the base was changed. No time to redo it, so just make it work, and hope the client doesn't notice.
Probably didn't have the masonry bit they needed to do it.
It's probably temporary until they come back with the bit and the anchors.
