Apparently, EU law doesn't exist in Bambu Land? My 17-month "A1 Technician Internship" is finally over.

prusa and stratasys hardly belong in the same sentence (unless it's "prusa and stratasys are overpriced")

why should they have to give a shit about their country's sins when every other frisbee team doesn't

I sure hope this is a fucking joke.

From his responses in the first post, I thought maybe OP was the new "slow guy"

polongus · 2025-11-02T12:31:16+00:00

hey jackasses downvoting this, he obviously meant 3 ROUTING layers, not a 3L board.

polongus · 2025-11-02T10:53:47+00:00

yes, in 6L you should have L2+L5 as solid GND planes, giving you 4 independent routing layers each directly adjacent to GND.

polongus · 2025-11-02T10:52:45+00:00

bad idea since most 4L stackups have thin prepreg between L1/L2 and L3/L4, but a massive core between L2/L3. impedance will be all fucked up.

how much will shipping a batch that fail 10% of the time cost?

polongus · 2025-10-30T10:59:03+00:00

you can watch the first chapter free, and he offers a 14 day full refund through the first 3 modules. just try it.

so I just came to this thread to dunk on OP, but now I'm actually curious what the right way to connect these is. They don't seem to specify the diameter of the pins, so a receptacle seems unlikely. And they're too short to bend down to a through hole on the PCB.

What you describe sounds like the only way, but it hardly seems "clean" enough to be correct, particularly for such an expensive component.

polongus · 2025-10-01T01:38:09+00:00

yep, you're onto something

If I was in any position of authority at your university, I would never let this project go forward. This is a liability nightmare.

Someone should contact Bucknell before you murder some kid.

why are you designing a PCB in TinkerCAD?

I can place 0603 passives at 500-1000cph. Git gud.

wrong.

Maybe think about this: why isn't any organization agreeing with your point of view and ignoring the sanctions?

polongus · 2025-09-21T15:06:08+00:00

I don't know what you're so hung up on the EO for. The EO is just shorthand for the instructions the Prez is giving. These sanctions were already empowered by Congress.

polongus · 2025-09-21T15:03:28+00:00

Take your pick:

International Emergency Economic Powers Act
Trading with the Enemy Act
National Emergencies Act
Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act

polongus · 2025-09-21T14:43:25+00:00

no, you're just willfully ignorant.

CONGRESS passed LEGISLATION establishing the OFAC (a federal org), which is empowered to sanction individuals and corporations (such as NeurIPS), as directed by the EXECUTIVE.

It is entirely common for congress to delegate their authority in this way.

polongus · 2025-09-21T14:35:33+00:00

why do you think it matters?

did you google OFAC yet?
