Wait, so the reason 115200 baud is a common bit rate for UART is because its a multiple of 9600 (x12=115200). And 9600 baud was commonly used because its 32*300 baud. And 300 baud was used because its the lowest common denominator of 50Hz and 60Hz. And that was used because telecom signals used to be clocked to the mains frequency? So many examples of engineers just adapting around legacy systems because its easier to build upon stuff than reinvent stuff lol

We’ll be attempting to machine two big T-slots radially on this plate. Fingers crossed 🤞
