I was very impressed with how enterprising this guy is! Most just needed their pins straightened out, a few needed new pins, and two were salvaged for parts (i.e. pins).

In this video I learned about the Metcal PTTC-706 soldering iron tips. I must save my pennies so I can buy myself a pair of these babies!
Falsehoods programmers believe about time
In my feed today: Falsehoods programmers believe about time.
A new grammatical form: universal
lol. My friend sent me this today:
The History of Aluminum
This is what it says on the tin. The reason we had a Bronze Age and an Iron Age but no Aluminium Age was because isolating aluminium is pretty difficult in comparison.
The Internet Was Weeks Away From Disaster and No One Knew
Veritasium reports on the xz hack from a few years back. Basically it was a back door in SSH which was accidentally found by a Microsoft employee who examined a small latency discrepancy.
Convincing wife the 3D printer was worth it
This guy made a handy hook for his scooter in order to convince wifey that 3D printer wasn’t a waste of money. :)
Process Of Making Folding Fan
A Korean master crafts a 350-year-old Hapjukseon folding fan by hand.
Deprecated master/slave signal names
See A Resolution to Redefine SPI Signal Names for notes about alternative names. I also noted in Getting Started with Arduino that alternatives to male/female are pin/socket.

Silly Job Title: Terminal Tactician. I am the Terminal Tactician!
In this video we continue to work our way through Learning the Art of Electronics. In this video we continue with 1L Lab: DC Circuits and test a 1N914 diode.
The circuit we build is this:
And the charts we make are these:
This demonstrates that as we increase the voltage into our diode the current increases exponentially.
We reverse the polarity of the diode to see what happens and we observe that only a very small leakage current of 0.4 µA flows.
We use the Riden RD6006 Bench Power Supply to supply 5V for our test circuit.
We use the EEVblog BM2257 Digital Multimeter to measure voltage.
We use the Fluke 17B+ Digital Multimeter to measure current.
We use the Carpenter Mechanical Pencil to make notes.
We use the Kaisi S-160 45x30cm Repair Mat as our workspace.
Thanks very much for watching! And please remember to hit like and subscribe! :)
p.s. today I added Riden, EEVblog, Kaisi, and Multimeter, to my spell check.
