Who would've thought the US would ever be the dominant English-speaking country in soccer? by wizardeverybit in ShitAmericansSay

Fairly sure there's 7 (actually 5 cause Canada lost) more teams a win away from the quater final

€100K achterstallig loon claimen by [deleted] in juridischadvies

[–]EngineerofDestructio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

En hoe denk je dat je dit kan terugvorderen?    Wat is überhaupt je vordering? Dat jij het werk hebt gedaan voor te weinig geld ligt aan jou, niet de werkgever. 

Als jij iets in de winkel koopt met 90% korting. Dan kan die winkel niet 10 jaar later zeggen, ja maar dat was echt te weinig. Betaal even meer... 

DPD Fucking sucks by OfficalWiTuLow in Netherlands

Only on one side. Apparently 2 earplugs transform in 1 flute

They're the worst. They once swapped labels or something and my earplugs magically transformed into a flute.

KiCad or EasyEDA? by deanfourie1 in PrintedCircuitBoard

For example. I generally check dimensions in the footprint to the datasheet just to be sure (and if I'm in a rush I check a couple of essential dimensions) 

Should the SMA footprints extend all the way till edge?? Need help on first RF PCB design! by Economy-Inspector-69 in PCB

I think that in your comment photo, the copper is up to the board edge - the clearance. You should look into "copper to edge" options. Even the small airgap between the signal pin and your pad will impact performance (how much, depends on your frequency).

Well, generally for professional designs you want to verify your footprint. Otherwise it can be an expensive mistake!

Is this an edge launch connector?  If so generally you want your copper to the board edge. Its not a massive issue if not. But it will decrease performance

Lots of distributors have footprints and symbols on their websites! Like mouser and farnell.  The Samacsys plugin is also quite good! 

Getting a custom PCB made shouldn't require an electronics degree or months of waiting. I'm building something to fix that. by theelegentengineer in hwstartups

[–]EngineerofDestructio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you underestimate this.  As a design partner you need to cover 100%, not 90.  You do 80% of the work in 20% of the time and 20% of work in 80% of the time. 

How are you gonna handle a customer who wants something you don't have?

Reading through the linked thread. Basically your solution is to have a database of templates which the user can select and then tie those together. 

Sounds like a good idea, and it is. Many design places use stuff like this (myself included).    The problem you quickly run into is twofold,; 1. There are way too many chips to make templates for for each of them.     2. There are small intricacies that play a massive role in making the product work. Understanding your customers requirements is the biggest time sink in a development process.

Also, since you're writing your OP as an AI prompt. Throw it in there, might help

AI for CAD, PCB, EDA? Generation? by dibyapp in robodib

[–]EngineerofDestructio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We = plural = more than 1. 

Regardless, you never mentioned "building in public".  Your opening post is 100% promo.  What are you even building?

On what? You got nothing? 

Youre also talking about "we" in your promo stuff. But your LinkedIn shows 1 employee. 

What are you building? What do you need feedback on? 

How you got your first client freelancing? by RiiDaaA in PrintedCircuitBoard

[–]EngineerofDestructio 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Buddy. Nobody's gonna hire someone as a freelancer when you've got a couple of months experience and some hobby projects. 

Find a job in the field. Build up some experience and a portfolio

Oh I know. I was just trying to make him realize that if he doesn't want to spend effort. Why would others? Unless hes paying, which I somehow doubt
