A bad footprint library will goat fuck you for months, even years, all while bleating loudly on every thrust.
Don't get caught in the trap that sch/footprint "libraries" make any sense. Software libraries make sense as they are instantly testable.
All public CAD libraries have zero provenance and traceability to anything that matters. A schematic / PCB reference design that has been manufactured 10k times is a much better "library". It has been through reflow oven 10k times. I only use external stuff that I know has gone through a reflow oven at scale.
This part is a good example of why:
IPC 7531 : horse shit.
Kicad libraries : horseshit.
Altium 365 : horseshit.
SnapEDA : triple horse shit and a dumpster fire
The job of librarian is horseshit too. The person who has to stay late to scrape traces or writes the check to cover the fuckup is the one who should make the footprint. They have actual skin in the game.
And dont use the excuse "my part is a complex 300 pin device". That is exactly the reason to invest the time.
Why would you delegate such a critical thing to an entity who doesn't give a shit out of the outcome?

🚨 Electrical engineers are going to hate this.
Someone just turned React into a circuit board factory. Write code. Get a real PCB manufactured and delivered to your door.
It's called tscircuit. React for Electronics.
No Altium. No $10,000/year licenses. No 6-month learning curve.
You write React components. But instead of

Running @Ultralytics #YOLO26 live on the edge! 🚀
Demoing our new embedded SOM with Amir Sherman. Built with DEEPX & Renesas, it delivers high-performance, low-power AI for robotics. Production starts soon! 👇

@cneralp @alplabai @alpelectronix what's the driving force behind a new SOM design? better performance? smaller size? I always wondered

🚨𝘽𝙍𝙀𝘼𝙆𝙄𝙉𝙂: European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen unveiled EU–INC, a new framework that lets you launch a company in 48 hours for under €100
Starting a company across the EU today = 27 legal systems, 60+ company structures 🤯
That might be about to change…
The European Commission just introduced 𝗘𝗨 𝗜𝗻𝗰., a new optional corporate framework designed to make Europe actually function like one market.
Here’s what stands out:
→ Set up a company in 48 hours
→ Cost: < €100
→ Fully online, no minimum capital
→ One single framework across all EU countries
→ Easier share transfers & fundraising
→ EU-wide employee stock options (huge for talent)
Especially the EU-wide stock option plans, taxed only when employees actually sell (instead of when granted) is huge.
This makes it far easier for startups to attract and retain top talent, finally putting Europe closer to the US playbook.
Source/More info: ec.europa.eu/commission/pre…
In short: This is Europe trying to compete with the simplicity of a Delaware C-Corp 🇺🇸
And honestly… it’s long overdue.
For years, European founders had 2 choices:
1. Stay local and deal with fragmentation
2. Move to the US to scale
𝗘𝗨 𝗜𝗻𝗰. is trying to remove that trade-off.
If executed well, this could be one of the most important structural changes for European startups in decades.
What do you think?

@cazaugg @blind_via I have a board with 3K components, can export without any problems.
English

@blind_via Just an example. They have output jobs that can do 3D model export. Except it only works if you board has less than ~500 parts. Otherwise it bugs out. Altium can reproduce it but wont fix because you can buy a cloud plugin for 1000$ per year to do proper 3d exports in the cloud.
English

KiCAD PCB putting priority on the 3d modeling quality was the best they could have ever done. Once again, this is what Altium did before them. They literally copied Altium bar for bar with this viewer. Say it with me folks: EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE LIKE ALTIUM!

3D PCB rotation has now been AUTOMATED in KiCad! I'll upload the plugin to GitHub tomorrow. Thank you @averagearc, you legend! I didn't know pressing F rotated the board lmao
