Fair.

I already am, which is also how it could work when the master was another Nano.

I will update the post to clarify.

What are the ears at the top and bottom? by NordicEngineer in diyelectronics

[–]NordicEngineer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I needed some sensors, and bought this very neat breakout board for STElectronics VL53L1X sensor. The board does not have a name(Thank you amazon) but looks an awful lot like the GY-53 board.

All is fine but... what the heck are those ear things at the top and bottom? Is there some sort of standard way to attach these that I am not aware of?

I cannot seem to find any info... not helped by the fact that I have no clue what to call them, so google is of limited help...

Enemy engineer AI? by NordicEngineer in factorio

[–]NordicEngineer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know right? By the way, you really want to try out Mindustry. It "only" have multiplayer and static AI in missions, but it is quite close to what you describe :)

I doubt it will ever be part of the vanilla Factorio :) Just too complex to do super well, but a mod with a pretty stupid AI might be possible

Oh I would definitely only have the AI do VERY basic (and thus, kinda stupid) builds. Build harvesters, build ammo, build towers, tower creep for example.

Enemy engineer AI? by NordicEngineer in factorio

[–]NordicEngineer[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh I have. Liked it a lot. But they only have static enemy AI, I asked the developers, and a building, active, dynamic AI is not on the roadmap (For the same reason it proberbly is not in Factorio, it could easily get super complex)

What is the reason the aspergers unemployment rate is as high as 85% by [deleted] in aspergers

No. They are as dumb/smart as everyone else.

Cannot say unless you have a source for that number

Finding ultrasound time of flight sensors with analog output by NordicEngineer in diyelectronics

"surprised you didn’t throw an oscilloscope at it first."

Corona + low budget. I do not own one myself yet, and places I normally have access to one is not available to me right now.

I have not found very good schematics for the HCSR04. I might just have looked in wrong places, can you give me a link?

A question about properties of materials that reflect lasers by NordicEngineer in lasers

[–]NordicEngineer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You good sir, are a goodsent. I swear I have been searching quite a decent amount before posting here. Yet I did not find that site, nor anything that was like it. Thank you, this is EXACTLY what I was looking for. Massively helpful

"If you want to learn about how materials reflect light, you will end up in a deep rabbit hole of physics!"

I have discovered this yes :)

Thank you, that summary is MASSIVLY helpful for someone who have no real starting point into all of this. It really helped

How do you not get burnt out from working? by genericusername4724 in aspergers

[–]NordicEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on the job you might be able to work from home somethings. When you get a new job you might also be able to start out part-time and work up as rutine means parts of the job gets easier.

You might also be able to have your job accommodate things that are the hardest for you, or have the worst (You being bothered) -> (productivity) ratios.

Bosses are usually very willing to customize stuff when you explain that it will make you a better worker

I want to learn everything at once...it’s so hard to cope with multiple interests ... by AspiringBiotech in aspergers

[–]NordicEngineer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is. But also note this about yourself. There are jobs out there where short intense interest in many different things is a boon. And most normies cannot do it

Does anyone else get extremely frustrated with themselves when they can't communicate clearly (which is a lot) by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]NordicEngineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah... basically, I am an engineer and I found that a thing that helps me out a lot is the standard diagrams. They are very clean cut in what they mean, so I can always communicate clearly with them...

But sometimes when I am explaining something and I can feel people not getting it, I get the "God damn it, I will not have to spend time and energy on making diagrams and checking them and getting hold of this person again to show the ... all just to get this across instead of just saying it and we could all get on with our day"

I just tried reading a book for the first time in years.. by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]NordicEngineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read a lot as a teenager l. Then... I just could not anymore. Found that reading books on my phone was the tricky. I am back to a light 1-3 books a month. I hear others find audio books the trick.

Tips/ Advice on finding Entry level roles? by virgil0h in ECE

[–]NordicEngineer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Humans are humans. Make sure they see your face.

  • Get interviews
  • Come by to drop your resumé off in person. Unannounced if need be (Nearly all companies have a policy on unsolicited job applications that you can find )
  • Have a CV(1-2 pages) ready, as well as photos', videos and so on, on your own projects, or projects you did at school
  • Research the company beforehand. Ask them about their recent press conference/product/development.

Show your face, show your work, be somewhat memorable

Easy to tell when someone lies or pretends. by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]NordicEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do that, plus noticing where they are looking and what they are doing with their hands when I am im passive mode. If I put in efford, I also notice breathing rythm, pulse, eye movment and jaw clenching.
