New from my 2nd bedroom: dAISy-catcher is a new AIS receiver developed in collaboration with the AIS-catcher project. It is optimized for maximum message count and range, and it blows all my previous designs out of the water.
So happy to have this one finally launched :)

@timixretroplays@digipres.club the magic search term is snap dome or tactile dome

Ok, here's a new one: wire-wound 0603 inductors measuring open circuit on 7 out of 110 boards (glad I ordered extras). 6x L72, 1x L41. L41 is kinda visible upon inspection, L72 less so. Two different part # from Murata, so I don't think it's just a bad reel. Any theories on how that could happen? #electronics
@RueNahcMohr@infosec.exchange it’s the type of the number, not the variable. 1ul << 32 probably will make it shut up.

@attoparsec or maybe the list is for the red flags, and white flags were still open when the map was created
@ozeng@aus.social No big copper pours, but the traces are a bit oversized relative to the pads. Though the layout for L41 didn't change in a decade, shipping 5K+ units without any issue.
@ozeng@aus.social some of the bend of L41 was probably me tugging to check whether the wire is loose.
Good point about temperature stress. Though over the years I tortured similar parts with toaster oven reflow and hotair rework and never killed one.
