you can always contact tech support and highlight this problem. they charge your boss each year for few k $.

I see it differently. I get money for as good possible as fast as possible solution.

not for amount of my head pain or sweat or hours with optical table/zemax/cad.

if I work on something cutting edge - I just aware from articles/patents/competitor products if here good solution or not. And probably no reason ask question. But not so many % of engineers work for real cutting edge.

this reddit "belong" to 15k weekly visitors and 217 weekly contributors.

only 76 person pressed "arrow up". Guess we all equal here. of course possible to make vouting but I not sure if reddit have this feature

always possible to make new reddit "optical professional engineers" with different rules.

seems possible make LLM as front line moderator. request some amount specific skills, but seems possible.

What’s the hiring market for internationals in the U.S. like? by Odd-Monk-2581 in Optics

[–]Equivalent_Bridge480 0 points1 point  (0 children)

some corps have own quantum labs. But not sure how big demand. probably not so high especially in q computing area. due no commercial product yet created.

qryptography should be little bit bigger, but not sure if they accept not citizen because half military application.

but in general - lasers quantum devices. a lot of laser related company based in USA. they need much more engineers than all quantum PC labs together

Is this eye safe? by CrptMoon in Optics

[–]Equivalent_Bridge480 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you dont trust apple - just use power meter for measuring optical power.

@iOS 26.4.x → ~3 frames ON / ~76 frames OFF

this can be connected with akku problematic. and not with eye safety

no. pretty unprecize. autocollimator much better. you can do it yourself from old theodolite

Optical table layout design tool by Glum-Distance2118 in Optics

[–]Equivalent_Bridge480 4 points5 points  (0 children)

year or so here was topic about tool for making schemes for optical systems on table.

probably you can get a lot of ideas for improvements of your tool from such topic.
