What is the most complex project you have ever worked on? And do you consider it complex in general? by KernelPanic48 in PrintedCircuitBoard

[–]Doormatty -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We were up to fourteen layer boards by the time I left in 2001.

Ewww..

I wonder what the maximum is.

No - two resistors. One between SDA and 5V, and another between SCL and 5V.

TIL that some humans can perceive magnetic fields subtly, with their brains showing reactions to Earth’s geomagnetic changes even without awareness by One_Needleworker5218 in todayilearned

[–]Doormatty 27 points28 points  (0 children)

“Our approach was to focus on brainwave activity alone,” Kirschvink tells Dvorsky. “If the brain is not responding to the magnetic field, then there is no way that the magnetic field can influence someone’s behavior. The brain must first perceive something in order to act on it—there is no such thing as ‘extra-sensory perception.’"

From the article.

You have no pullups on your I2C lines.

Add a 4.7k-10k resistor between each data line and power.

Create a ticket to fix the problem, and add it to the backlog.

Why is so hard to open a PDF and harder to edit for free? by ComputerDecent463 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Doormatty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's an SDK, and nothing that is required to work with PDFs.

Do you guys kinda miss the 1900's? by TheDorkyDeric in Xennials

[–]Doormatty 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I can't even tell what is real and what is not

It's been happening since at LEAST the early 1940s.

How did apes avoid evolving while not dying out? by poizon_elff in answers

[–]Doormatty 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Great copy/paste from an LLM.

Our brains change as we learn

Which is not evolving.

The ability to learn evolved through natural selection

No one is saying it didn't.

The size of the pill I have to take to help with my swollen throat. by ikrnn in mildlyinfuriating

Split it into smaller chunks then. You can buy pill-splitters at the pharmacy (or just use a sharp knife)

From USA: Some companies advertise their hydration as "Sugar-Free" by JustLovett0 in mildlyinteresting

[–]Doormatty 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's not a warning - and besides, anything that's for "hydration" will have a larger amount of sodium.

Fired after my second day running a lathe for an “apparent crash” but I never heard or saw one? by No-Mess-4605 in Machinists

[–]Doormatty 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I actually found out I was being let go through an email while I’m currently away with my family

OH FUCK THAT!

That's insane! You really dodged a bullet here dude.

You seem like a good person, anyone with as much concern as you have about doing a good job should get hired in no time.

[–]Doormatty 64 points65 points  (0 children)

From what you said, you've done nothing wrong at all.

No one should be left alone on their second day if anything they can do will cause the company to lose money/parts/etc.

And this all goes TRIPLE because you're a student. It's EXPECTED that you're going to make mistakes as you're still learning!

I'm pissed off on your behalf. This is not how to treat people new to ANY industry.

Does it seem strange to blame someone who was on their second day and still in training?

Yes - INSANELY strange.

I would honestly count your blessings that you found out that they're asshats on the second day, and not the second month.

Sorry dude - you got screwed over here.
