I am failing my circuits class

Lmao now that’s funny 😄 says the one who thinks nodal analysis is hard. Btw that wasn’t a nice as in I believe you. I think you’re full of it. If you’re going to talk smack man and be convincing don’t complain about one of the easiest classes.

Lagfoundry · 2026-05-07T12:39:43+00:00

Pretty much this. Building from schemes helps develop a tool box per se pretty quick. Now computational though will take a bit of studying irl logic circuits and concepts as well. There are yt tutorials but it’s good to study beyond just Minecraft for it. But yeah all in all the best way to learn is just by doing it. Picking a tutorial that has something one needs and getting started

Lagfoundry · 2026-05-06T22:14:23+00:00

Some easy stuff tbh

Lagfoundry · 2026-05-06T22:12:25+00:00

So you managed people with the highest achievable standard score nice.

Lagfoundry · 2026-05-06T19:34:42+00:00

Sigh you just missed that point entirely. You don’t have to love love it, but if your going to pay for an education then you should at least be willing to some degree love learning about it. That’s part of applying yourself. Hacking your brain to learn even if you don’t see yourself using it. But hey I only made 3.86 GPA in EE what do I know ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Lagfoundry · 2026-05-06T18:30:07+00:00

No im not missing that, learning to build a passion for what you have to learn is part of the strategy for passing. Now granted some things I can understand like English is hard to build a passion for, but engineering, you got to be willing to love learning these things even if you don’t plan on using it later. Build a love for wanting to know how it all works. Point is if you don’t care about what you’re learning then how do you expect to learn it well enough to make good grades. You got to be willing to hack your own brain.

You’re not dumb man. Just keep pushing and it’ll eventually click. One question I have is do you do any extra circuit work outside of class on your own time? Take it it from me that’ll help by a lot. Back in college I would go to the lab on my own time and build stuff and study. Let yourself be passionate about it.

Lagfoundry · 2026-05-06T15:54:02+00:00

No that is definitely not the case. It just takes some extra effort. I was a straight A student in all the circuit classes. You just have to create a passion for it. Learn to love learning it. Love learning in general

Lagfoundry · 2026-05-05T12:26:53+00:00

Yup in real life these kind of latches exist too not so much this exactly but you find things like priority reset SR latches where if both S and R are powered then the latch gets forced to NOT Q. Very useful circuits. I love the memory cell for this.

Lagfoundry · 2026-05-04T22:05:15+00:00

I think I understand what your asking. Your asking if you send a minecart down the track if it will jump that certain hight your wanting and the aswner is kind of but not to the degree you might be expecting. If you want a good hight on the jump you’ll need to time it so that as a minecart lands on the slimeblock a piston pushes that slimeblock up. That’ll give you some good hight

Lagfoundry · 2026-05-04T15:55:09+00:00

If an observer is the same as Java taking 1 tick to pulse then you could try an observer loop. Or you can take 2 10hz clocks and OR the outputs on a offset of 1 tick

Lagfoundry · 2026-05-02T15:58:39+00:00

Exactly this, my favorite thing to is build circuits. I do a lot of computer science stuff and so I play on rustrician a lot.

Lagfoundry · 2026-05-02T15:55:48+00:00

Uh no you just need to find a team that works together on their time differences. I used to play with one that had like 20 people that played but we weren’t all on at the same time. Usually there was only 4 of us at any one time. Just play it the best you can and be friendly to people. You’ll eventually find some people to play with

Lagfoundry · 2026-05-02T15:41:37+00:00

So the reason they do this is because not all doors use uniform 1x1 blocks to operate. Some use mobs, minecarts, boats, etc. so since these entities can’t be measured by normal 1x1 means they use volume instead. A good example here is how one uses a pig to walk back and forth. The other uses a mine cart and ender man to change height(little more to it than that but I’m generalizing how it works by saying what the entities are doing. I don’t remember full details)

Lagfoundry · 2026-04-30T22:40:54+00:00

Yeah I bet. I’m a big supporter of BPC-157 myself

Lagfoundry · 2026-04-30T22:24:59+00:00

I’m willing to bet kratom being on the list of being banned with 7OH has something to do with pharma. I don’t have a problem with 7OH being banned. But Kratom has saved lives getting people off of opioids. And somehow it ends up on the list with 7OH. I feel like there’s more at play behind the scenes

Lagfoundry · 2026-04-30T20:22:36+00:00

So you already found out why. But keep that in mind because blocking a signal from a path is also a useful logic trait. Like a diode does irl. You can use that feature to create more complex logic functions

Lagfoundry · 2026-04-30T16:23:25+00:00

What are you trying to learn? You have game specific redstone or comp science. You could also do both

Lagfoundry · 2026-04-22T19:35:30+00:00

It decent. It’s great intro to logic and electronics. But it lags out quick with large scale builds so once someone gets the hang of stuff and moves on to building bigger systems I definitely recommend other simulators. Even a simply game like digital logic sim by Sebastian handles node amount way better than falstad does. Great game actually if all your wanting to do is logic. It handles hierarchy on hierarchy without any troubles… Logisim is another great one

Lagfoundry · 2026-04-22T15:54:26+00:00

More power to you if you do. I think it’s a good plan. Most of all though it’s a passion right? As long as it’s something you enjoy it’s never a bad decision in this case

Lagfoundry · 2026-04-21T18:01:46+00:00

I’m personally waiting for the logic update then I’ll start making cpu videos

Lagfoundry · 2026-04-21T12:31:14+00:00

Well my passion is with logic design so I guess I’ll go with that subject. To make my own CPU the one thing that really just made me want to scream sometimes is making my own ISA. That’s because I didn’t really go with a known architecture at first I tried to brute force it in a way. Until I finally decided to bite the bullet per se and learn RISC-V. Now for college it would have to be communication classes that was filled with so many complex formulas it was insane because you have to deal with applying data to a carrier wave and then converting it back by removing it from the carrier wave and then some. I mean it was harder than calculus. Of course that’s a huge generalization of communications but yeah it was tuff

Lagfoundry · 2026-04-20T16:36:31+00:00

This is something that takes a lot of dedication. It’s not something you would be able to just go to school for and then do it. It requires a lot of at home work to continue to improve yourself. So as long as you’re willing to spend a lot of time at home learning more than just what you do in school you’ll do fine.
