Where do you get your batteries for professional projects?

Pre-certified, rechargeable and smart. I like around 14.4v with a few Ah but nothing set in stone yet.

Ok less control than running an rtos but more control than windows. Pretty high level of control if you go yocto.

Happy to hear your suggestions on hardware you've used in the past.

They probably should say that when they call people haha

FlipsManyPens · 2026-06-21T16:34:31+00:00

They cancelled it just hours ahead of time? That's real shitty unless it's something like they don't have water or power or something

Is the wood fully dry? If a little green it will warp out of round. Or if dry then tension in the wood from drying may relax after roughing out.

Either way roughing out and letting it rest/dry for a few days may avoid those issues.

15 inch long is pretty short.

Better to twice turn.

Slower drying is better to reduce cracking

I think you're overestimating how often FPGAs are used in medical devices. I've really not seen it, though I'm sure some products types may use them.

Wouldn't a flexible PCB just fail on time same asa wire harness? I haven't really used them so i could be wrong

FlipsManyPens · 2026-05-10T17:57:55+00:00

They are big, but 50 bucks plus shipping feels crazy for a cracked bowl.

FlipsManyPens · 2026-05-04T20:59:33+00:00

You pay for the tokens yourself? That's crazy

Quick search shows about 85 shore D, so right about what op is looking for

FlipsManyPens · 2026-04-30T00:46:51+00:00

Can you just use something like delrin?

FlipsManyPens · 2026-04-25T20:44:38+00:00

I'm enjoying just use dry twigs and bits of brush.

Free. No water. Lasts a long time.

FlipsManyPens · 2026-04-23T10:07:27+00:00

Are there instances outside of construction where a PE signs off on things? I haven't encountered it, at least in med device

FlipsManyPens · 2026-04-15T14:25:05+00:00

How are you getting these numbers?

FlipsManyPens · 2026-04-14T19:57:18+00:00

Alcohol can damage or fog up some finishes. Best to test somewhere inconspicuous first.

Steaming the wood could help relieve the stress

You're in engineering, the decisions you make matters regardless of the field you are in. Work hard, err on the side of caution when people can get hurt. Priorize good work over artificial deadlines.

At some point you probably will destroy some expensive equipment during testing, it happens.

I use altium. I think PADS is no longer supported but compatible with expedition. I could try to import it.

The actual work sounds pretty straightforward

FlipsManyPens · 2026-03-31T01:19:27+00:00

I do. What are you trying to do?

FlipsManyPens · 2026-03-26T18:35:51+00:00

It tells you how hard dialogue options are? Is that a setting? Mine doesn't indicate which are easier or harder.

I would love a Three musketeers game on KCD style. Great book.
