Your mileage may vary, but regarding effective life management, I found the Mark Manson's book The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F: Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life to have more truth in than the title may say.

There is also another story [1]. That standard air-core coax lines were built using regular plumbing pipes in US. As the impedance of a coax is proportional to log(inner diameter of the shield/outer diameter of the core) this generat

EPP (extruded polypropylene) and EPS (extruded polystyrene) are not exposed to the sunlight in car seat's construction. Also, if those break down it will be surface-first decomposition and very visible/noticeable.

Few applications I have worked on lately involving FPGAs: - RF and microwave, direct digital synthesis. - Data acquisition and analysis (fast, very fast) - Time of Flight imaging/video - Timing critical process control

When was that? I started using Linux in mid 90's and never recall a useful installation of that size. Single floppy rescue disc distros did not have room for C compiler and standard development libs IIRC.

In my experience it does not taste like chicken at all. But it nevertheless is quite good. Maybe has a chicken-breadt like structure. Make sure to pick the young ones, as older ones are too tough to eat -- closer to wood, rather than meat.

I think this is closest we have got to the Uncanny Valley [1] in PCB layout... But seriously, this type of any-angle/arc routing can be very effective and is often seen on IC interposer/package substrate routing. [1] https:

On this board it looks like just a functionality/beauty thing and does not matter much. But depends on the target. While for the pads I agree, spacing can be optimised, then for the densely routed areas space is your friend. At high

You can play around with this type of simulations quite easily. Have been using free version of Sonnet planar EM solver [1] for this over the years. Helpful in developing the industry standard magic RF intuition . [1] http://www

Development of F22 started in 1980's. Last VAX machines were manufactured in 2005. There is quite a lot of VME bus based legacy (but speciallized and working) measurement and test equipment still around. I have no involvement in the pr
