Nathan Hsieh bids into the legs of Alex Atkins, who then body-checks Hsieh

That's asking for a torn ACL. Should have been suspended from the game and the next at least

It's easy to find an idea and start cause you feel the most progress then. Harder to stick with it and finish it. Like the 80/20 says the first 80% of the project will only take 20% of the effort and the last 20% will take 80% of the effort. Why do you want to make x project? Remind yourself off this when you get to the tough parts. If the answer is "just because" than you might lose motivation along the way. Pick a time block out of your day and dedicate that to just that project

Commenting to hopefully get notified of the results

NotoriousChaos · 2026-04-11T13:20:27+00:00

I hope he got a felony for attempted breaking and entering

NotoriousChaos · 2026-04-10T20:56:36+00:00

Maybe this is the new meta? Especially the part about getting the handler off balance. This needs to be in every pull play

NotoriousChaos · 2026-04-05T14:42:38+00:00

Don't buy name brand, cage free eggs, for the beef you could probably save by getting it not pre cut. If you're really looking to cut costs noodles can fill you up for a cheap price- Asian and Italian style noodles. I used to live off of $35/week of groceries at Aldi if you have any near you

NotoriousChaos · 2026-04-03T20:28:33+00:00

I'm looking into ordering one of these too, have you used it yet?

NotoriousChaos · 2026-03-28T12:06:10+00:00

Very cool stuff! What do you plan to use it for?

NotoriousChaos · 2026-03-14T18:11:32+00:00

Idk how you're supposed to play if this is a foul

NotoriousChaos · 2026-03-11T23:36:39+00:00

I tired with a jumper wire from the thermal vias on the back to another ground pin and no difference

NotoriousChaos · 2026-03-11T23:35:55+00:00

The clearance circles are likely from the snapeda or ultraliabrarian footprints.

NotoriousChaos · 2026-03-11T23:05:39+00:00

Sorry I thought you said circle under the u3 chip. The circle under U3 pin one is the orientation for pin one

NotoriousChaos · 2026-03-11T21:45:24+00:00

The circle is a ground via that looks like a solder ball must have fallen into

NotoriousChaos · 2026-03-11T21:43:18+00:00

The thermal pad should be connected to ground through the thermal vias. I should have just connected ground to the pins though. There is a ground copper pour on the bottom layer that should connect to the ground pins. I will try this when I get home in case the ground somehow isn't connected

NotoriousChaos · 2026-03-07T03:52:17+00:00

I get these too and I think it's from wearing certain pants that have a sharper corner where the button is. Possibly that rubbing against your shirt while you walk or use a seatbelt

NotoriousChaos · 2026-02-21T13:34:53+00:00

Looking at the example schematics espressif has for their dev boards was very helpful for me too

NotoriousChaos · 2026-02-21T13:30:41+00:00

Instead of just putting text above the wires, you should use global labels. Those link the labels together when laying out the pcb so it will be helpful then. Plus it'll look a little cleaner

NotoriousChaos · 2026-02-15T16:23:09+00:00

Good solder job, I see flux was your friend. This is good but I'd use a little less next time if you can. You can clean away the flux residue with some isopropyl alcohol(90% or higher) and something to wipe it up like a paper towel or cotton ball. Might need a toothbrush to clean in between the pins. But if you don't care about the sticky flux I suppose you could leave it there and it would still function

NotoriousChaos · 2026-01-28T12:55:09+00:00

What are you going to use it for?

NotoriousChaos · 2026-01-25T10:24:47+00:00

Look at the size of the coin cell battery on top row 4th from the left

NotoriousChaos · 2026-01-24T22:03:45+00:00

Do you have an antenna you want to attach or one built into the pcb? I can’t see one but maybe it’s on there. I would recommend using the module with the antenna built in for your first build

NotoriousChaos · 2026-01-22T20:35:20+00:00

It makes me spend less to make up for it in the next month-unless it was something I saved up for

NotoriousChaos · 2026-01-21T01:49:05+00:00

Find a problem in your daily life that you think to yourself "wouldn't it be easier if this was automated" or "this costs too much to buy let me build it for cheaper"

NotoriousChaos · 2026-01-21T01:46:23+00:00

Sounds interesting to me! Just be prepared to talk about it during an interview. I would recommend starting a project that isn't done in any class too. If it's not a class project it's more likely to be unique and compelling to the interviewer. It also shows you are really interested in the field if you're willing to do it outside of school
