Streams straight from the publisher. podnod never proxies or re-hosts episode audio.
- We were four minutes into an episode when we realized we weren't recording. So this show is just a tribute.
- Chris just launched the Contextual Electronics Podcast! There are already three episodes released, and another three recorded!
- Chris uses Streamyard for recording video. We use Zencastr for The Amp Hour.
- Cameras continue to improve...but don't have much effect on Dave and Chris
- Eurocircuits has a great DfM tool because there's no human in the loop for checking your files
- We wish that was the case for sales engineers as well...it's better when you don't need to talk to humans!
- Chris has been dealing with gerber problems. Dave ended up making a video about this after this episode was recorded.
- Gerber "aperture" is like an etch-a-sketch where light goes through a certain diameter hole to expose the pattern.
- Dave has a new video about someone who created a similar design at the same time. We have discussed this once or twice before on the show.
- "Technology transfer" when an employee goes from one company to another and a design concept follows them.
- Intel sending work to TSMC. They also got rid of their lead engineer.
- ARM is up for sale again. Apple suppliers are talking about purchasing, as are Nvidia.
- Softbank has had some real duds lately, notably WeWork.
- Arrow isn't buying IEEE GlobalSpec. They do own EETimes though.
- Google is offering training courses that may lead to hiring for them. It will be as low as $300 and administered through Coursera.
- Scott Galloway talks about how education and training will change on the Prof G show.
- Brad Feld was on the Tim Ferriss podcast.
- Shahriar did a great troubleshooting video last week, showing how to diagnose different RF sections.
- The Ultimate Electronics online textbook has links out to 100+ simulations to showcase concepts.
- Chris has been reading some new books lately:
- Dave has never watched...The Office??
So this show is just a tribute
