At least it isn't made out of balsa wood?

Young Doctor's Notebook

My source is Boveda's marketing literature, which says that they are the only people that do two-way. Have I mentioned that I am an audiophile? http://www.bovedainc.com/technology/ Edit: is theirs *patented*?

I would look into Boveda packs, depending on how far from your RH you are and how much you want to spend (these two are related). Beads are only one-way humidity control, Boveda isn't. That's what I use for my cigars and it's fantastic. I use Oasis for my instruments.

Which one is that again? If it was me that suggested that, then I know which one... It has to do with the (lack of) stability with a base-biased transistor (emitter current isn't temperature stable). It would be even better to use a different design that isn't so dependent on transistor parameters (I.e. Beta) (collector-feedback perhaps?) I think what happened with the original is that higher case temperatures than we see in the DIY version further inflated the gain of the transistor (this is a bit of a stretch, admittedly) which made the circuit work more consistently. I think the result would be more stability, but I guess I am the few people that sees this part of the circuit as not being robust - likely because I seem to have the most problems.

I do fail at sarcasm, Shelly is right. I was being serious.

Perhaps start with the Apple hardware and install Microsoft OS. Maybe she will get used to the idea

Kerry, would it be possible to get ahold of your 9-pin pattern? Or hole diameters and outer circle radius and angles?

Yeah, just found that. I think I can make that work!

Does anyone have: Technical specs for the Jensen clamps Or... a creative way to mount a transformer can to a PCB? I would like to have the option on my PCB to also support this transformer, but with no mounting bushing or threaded holes, it's tricky. The part is: http://www.jensen-transformers.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/jt-346-axt-112.pdf Edit: looks like I could just screw these to a PCB: Mouser Part #: 598-VR4A

That's the Kowloon discount. I think the amount for something that would rival a Savile row suit is more around $2K with lifetime adjustments. I will be in HK a lot in the next 3 months, and you could crash at my place.

Perhaps check out "pos-cap"? I am not sure the generic non trademark name, but that's what I would use.

No, they are diodes.

eztv?

121-332 is what I have used. I think it doesn't really matter as long as the result is stable.

Your post sounds like a troll. I would recommend just selling it and using the output on your motherboard. Sounds like you prefer that, so why search further?

Maybe 2.54mm?

It's done in the digital domain.

Any mechanical noise with the SSR? I have given up on them in larger (>=300VA) designs completely. They really don't like inductive loads, best I can tell.

EF184, or similar? Edit: ah LOW .. Ok, nm, can't read.

I would argue if you matter to the company, they will make it work. If I were you and truly believed what you just stated, I would find another job. For example, if you are able to complete a project in 75% of the time if you could take the last 25% off, both sides win. Many people work to their work done early for the holidays and took off 5-6 weeks. I think another factor is that in tech many people are tied to equity in a manner that is really obvious. If you do well, then the stock price goes up and so does their total compensation. Regardless, plenty of ink spilled on the topic (definitely worth searching around, though some opinions such as those at Virgin seem a bit utopic) and it's becoming more common for sure. If I was in a position such as Reks it's something I would seek out.

Working at a company with an unlimited PTO policy and managing employees that have taken off considerably more time than a few weeks, I would have to disagree.

Many tech companies have "unlimited PTO" policies... What that translates to in actuality might depend, but likely still a lot better than most places.

We will see.

Mmm Spec's.
