Aetna seems to be hit or miss here in California. My brother had it and it was great for him. For me, it doesn't compare to Kaiser

Have had both employer provided Kaiser and Aetna. Aetna was awful while Kaiser was great. Aetna made us jump through all kinds of hoops to get a simple prescription (not pain meds) while it was only a quick phone call with Kaiser. In fact,

LTSpice is pretty great. I used it in undergrad to design and simulate a single block of CMOS memory. It was a little tough getting going, but once I figured things out it was a great experience.

Nearly the same for me. Continuous controls was a requirement for graduating with my BSEE. I don't believe that it was required for the MEs.

A great introduction to circuits is Grob's Basic Electronics[0]. I used at a community collge intro to circuits course and it (and the course) gave me a good headstart for when I eventually transferred to a four year university. [0]:

If you have an Android device, Fritter is a pretty good Twitter client. You can read threads and follow accounts without having an account. It's a little buggy sometimes, but overall it's pretty good.

Back in undergrad, I used LTSpice to simulate and design a single unit of memory, I believe at the nanometer scale. It certainly has its quirks and can be frustrating to use, but I was one of the few people who were actually able to complet

What is the point of doing something like this here? Supposedly on a site like reddit people do this to increase karma and then can sell their account or whatever, but I don't see much of a point in doing that here.
