@Jay966591328971 the trap door🤦

@digikey LMAO. When one sprinkler head goes off, they all go off. Or, when people get stuck in elevators and they climb up through the trap door that is actually designed to only open from the top.

What’s a common engineering trope in movies that NEVER happens in real life?

@ben__bradley 😅

@digikey I measure voltage at every node vs. what I think it should be, voltage at both ends of every wire. Is each R and C the expected value? Is each base about 0.6v higher/lower than emitter? V at every IC pin. Oh wait, you only said first thing. Excuse me, I have to write a book.

What’s the first thing you check when something isn’t working? 🤔

What’s one skill every new engineer should learn early?

@JeremySCook that's fair😅

@digikey Maybe ME305 - Analysis of dynamic systems. Hard to define why... especially after so long, lol.

Hardest class you've taken and why?
