havent even assembled it and i've found a bug :p
<azonenberg>
thankfully a minor one: the silkscreen still says v0.1
<GenTooMan>
azonenberg, that's a mostly harmless bug
<azonenberg>
Yeah compared to a lot of my previous bugs it's not bad lol
<azonenberg>
Going to assemble "soonish" with exact timetable depending on how long it takes me to get the MEAD pods cleared out
<azonenberg>
as those are currently in the way
<GenTooMan>
well the last flex PCB I remember that I had anything to do with had a bug on it but it had 6 legs... it was "what they heck", somehow they got an ant stuck to it!
<azonenberg>
lol
<azonenberg>
ok that's special
<azonenberg>
anyway yeah, there are MEAD pods all over my bench
<azonenberg>
I have four more MMCX boards to build but somehow didn't have enough connectors, so i'm waiting for a digikey shipment
<azonenberg>
twelve of the 24 front panels have LCDs installed and waiting for epoxy to dry
<azonenberg>
it's stinky so i do it in the fume hood and i didn't have hood capacity to do all 24 at once
<azonenberg>
then i have to solder backlight wires from the main board to the display panel, insert the panel ribbon cable, and screw the board and front panel to the enclosure
<azonenberg>
i guess i could attach the backlight wires on one end now, but i cant do the other end until the front panels are done
<azonenberg>
the epoxy takes 24h to cure so it'll be another 9-10 hours before i can move them
<azonenberg>
then i can do the second batch
<azonenberg>
And it looks like the MMCXes won't be here till friday
<GenTooMan>
sounds like you will be busy.
<GenTooMan>
intermittently sprinkled between real life :D
<azonenberg>
lol
<azonenberg>
Yep, i have to be at the lab for $dayjob in person the rest of the week
<azonenberg>
now that i've basically taken over lab operations, i have to do all of the infrastructure work
<azonenberg>
like sorting through a giant pile of dongles, dev boards, and programming adapters and figuring out waht we need to keep and what we can get rid of
<azonenberg>
But i'm trying to get as many of my pending in-progress projects complete as possible before the fork(2) comes
<Degi>
What is that?
<azonenberg>
Child process :p
<azonenberg>
Aka my soon to be kid
<d1b2>
<SleepyOwl Joyce> congratulations?
<GenTooMan>
azonenberg, as an old man once said "there is never a good time to have children"
<GenTooMan>
so you and the family will be a trite busy. I've the opposite problem parents are getting old enough things are getting complicated.
<Degi>
congrats
<azonenberg>
I thought i had mentioned here already lol
<Degi>
I mean I don't read 100 % of the chat xD
<azonenberg>
Fair enough
<azonenberg>
anyway yeah wife is due mid to late august
<azonenberg>
So i expect to be pretty busy when that happens
<azonenberg>
And i'm busy in the meantime because i'm trying to leave $dayjob's lab in a decent state before disappearing for a while lol
<azonenberg>
So between setting up all the baby stuff and going into the lab a lot for that, on top of normal work, i've been... staying busy
<azonenberg>
But i also want to clear out some of my backlog of projects while i still have *some* free time :p
