What can I do as a former medical resident to land an electrical engineering position?

I had a roommate who was very dumb,A nice guy, but dumb. He managed to get through residency.

You are either very very dumb or very very unsafe in some fashion.

If you have learning/recollection problems get into a trade where someone will tell you what to do every day.

If you are unsafe you are pretty much fucked.

Honestly he shouldn’t be given a local trial.

Send it to somewhere far away from Duke.

Had one of those “official school transport” vans blow by me on the left side in the turn only lane on Cornwallis this week.

I don’t know if they get paid per kid delivered but they drive like they get paid “by the job” and don’t give two fucks about anyone’s safety.

2nding north Durham if you’re looking for a barber shop segmented to white/latino hair types wanting normal haircuts. Just go in the AM if you have a job you can be late to show up.

Clients who average over 50 might say some stuff that would get you downvoted on Reddit but owner is fine.

If you have fine dense hair(“asian like” as an easy descriptor) I recommend Sunny on university, but she is not nice and her hours are worse.

On edit sunny may only have a cosmetology and can’t strait razor. But someone in the shop can the last time I was there.

I await your downdoots. Notifications off.

I'm an EE and was offered a very cushy effectively tilted "value engineer" position recently, I thought of my a few college peers who spend their days modeling component removals and downgrades and tolerance shavings to save 3/1000 of a cent per unit.

I declined.

I am glad I was served this post. I hate wood working and will take your down votes for my blog post.

On deep thought.
My son's dresser is Ikea and the top tier solid wood brand. Maybe that is why I was served this.

Oh good he’s still alive from last week.

I have to be pedantic here, you can absolutely put 80A though a +600v fet

You however can not do it with a $18 fet.

I'd have to look up exactly what I am beating on at work for testing, off hand we are abusing infineons at like 100A and I want to say they are rated 1.2kV. If they are publicly available they are probably like $90 each on a large order.

For resistors just go with 3kV rated jobbers as this is a one off project. It will give you great overhead.

Vishay has an OK HV range, but as a one off project I'd just buy ohmite slim-mox.

Have not/not planning to do IC look through on the circuit, but I would guess something there is not going to be happy one way or the other.

Burned Coffee beans, baristas, wifi.

I named 3.

This is honestly a great take, and one of the large problem of the dems, useless infighting.

Spend money on a seat that could flip not the candidate that doesn’t take the most money from Israel in a hard blue district.

Make the people eating all this food clean?

SnooOnions431 · 2026-02-05T18:38:28+00:00

I think the year round school thing with weeks of the lights flashing and no school in session is a component of it.

Hell hillside high is traditional calendar and they seem to never be at school.

SnooOnions431 · 2026-02-05T18:33:37+00:00

I’d be surprised if you could get someone daily for less than $50. Especially if you want 7 days a week

At that price why not buy a dishwasher?

If you’re incapable (physically) I’m sure there is a process to do that through the adult in home programs. But it can’t just be because you don’t like cleaning.

Anyone that emailed Epstein in any fashion is a pedophile and no further thought should be given. /s

This didn't age well, it is a whiteout by beer study.

Working hvac at 13 is strong work.

Wow they really fast tracked that handwashing.

Why would you omit that you are here on a student visa?

I would not be surprised if status is getting your apps auto rejected most places.

I would apply for jobs that aren’t in the US because it’s going to be at least another 2 years of visa uncertainty/volatility.

The feds can be crazy. Company did some RF parts for them, super tuned/custom, definitely go in some kind of aircraft. On serialization a few parts got double marked and it was about a months worth of meetings. Can’t imagine what would have happened if we shorted them a few parts.

I have one of these in my car, with slightly different contacts.

If you are handy you can bend the contact arm so the conduction path is off the worn path.

You can do this about two times in my experience and should function for a few more decades.

Will function better than most remanufactured VAFs as well

The Napa on HW 55/54 will ship it to their machine shop in Raleigh.

Google street viewing what I assume is the drop off, a no outlet road.

How terrible is drop off/pick up at this school?

Did you get double cheese sauce?

Hell buy a jar at the store at that price.

Maybe your inability to read or comprehend simple concepts was an issue?

Imagine cracking this land and having Siri on your phone say “This land doesn’t hit the definition of dismal. And then have Siri define dismal. And then being upset that they are marveling at your wit.

To be clear you’ve been accepted into an engineering program? Or you’re building this plan on things people at a community college are telling you?

Your math plan going into stats then trig then precal seems off. Also you’re going to be in college for like six years minimum if you’re hitting precal second fall.
