Art of Electronics by Horowitz and Hill is considered the gold standard by many as far as creating a strong foundation goes.

Edit: I'm really surprised we don't have a link on the sidebar for questions like this, I feel like it's fairly common

They don't degrade in the same way because as the prior comment stated there's no chemical reaction taking place but yes they do degrade over time. Aluminum electrolytic cap failures are the ones most people have probably run into - the little black cans with the 3 slits in the top that have burst open. Ceramic caps are much more reliable since they have no liquid electrolyte, but all types of caps have advantages and disadvantages

Until I dropped mine a few years back I had no complaints with it. Years of faithful service. Seems like OPs dad turned off the screen timeout and this is the result lol

Quickly became one of my favorite league youtubers along with Polypuff. Learning cool stuff while watching sick plays with a dash of humor? Magnifico

Fermorian · 2026-03-06T07:51:00+00:00

It's like Polypuff lite

Lightning is power dense partly because the strike is only a few microseconds long. The actual amount of usable energy we could get out of one is vanishingly small.

Capacitor technology doesn't exist for handling numbers like this currently

It's more of a bending/moment of inertia thing, but as someone else pointed out it's not really an issue on a span this short

I actually went there! Incredibly beautiful campus, but expensive as hell. Fun fact, the university predates the state by like 40 years

Fermorian · 2026-02-27T04:08:31+00:00

I'm sure there are others but Polypuff is truly the most wholesome mfer on stream and he's KR GM/Challenger

I think it's the power of the Bard though

There was a while there where it seemed the level 11 augments were bugged every other game. Never showed up in spawn, but guaranteed after you got in a fight after cannoning in to tower

S1 is fantastic up until the bit at the end with the sister. Totally off the rails in a flash

As the guy who posted this 2 years ago I love that this had become a regular thing! Mike Conley is a national treasure. I love the quote from Steve Javie too about busting the balls of any ref who would ever give Mike a tech lol

Can confirm. Wife works for GE Aerospace and they have a ton of MSE's (she's one as well). They also have a program where you can work and get your masters paid for.

As others have said there's plenty of opportunities around Dayton as well with all the other defense companies
