  1. “Ever since I started taking your class, I’ve enjoyed learning about electricity!” For Christian Lafforgue, named best teacher in the electrical engineering section for 2025, that’s the “coolest compliment” he’s gotten as a teacher.

    Scientist in the Photonic Systems Laboratory, he knows only too well how a professor can influence a student’s academic decisions. He believes that a good teacher is one with a keen sense of humanity.

  7. So... those #AMD BC-250 singleboard #APUs have apparently 16 gb of DDR6 memory on them. These boards go for like $100-$150 on ebay, but ram is worth 10 times that. One of my friends in an #EE and we've gotten the idea to try and scrape one of these for ram and create our own DDR6 ram stick from scratch. If we can do this, these things become a gold mine. I wonder how impossible this will be lol. #tech #homebrew #engineering #electricalengineering

  8. Researchers have developed high-performance, lead-free #piezoelectric thin films composed of manganese-doped bismuth ferrite grown directly on standard silicon wafers. These films are capable of converting everyday mechanical vibrations into electrical energy with unprecedented efficiency.

  15. `We have published several retrospectives highlighting Intel’s 4004, and it was indeed pivotal to the development of the PC and the industry that holds many of us in thrall to this day. However, there’s an alternative future where the MP944 wasn’t kept secret for over a quarter-century, and one wonders what the shape of the computer industry would be in that case.`

    C fits in G socket. The trick is to do it on an extension lead, turn a G plug upsidedown to use the ground pin to force open the little shutters, then bam! You can push the C plug into the remaining holes.

    Obvs you'll want to make sure your C plug device can handle the G grid's voltage.

  22. So, I would like to #crowdsource a solution to an #ElectricalEngineering #EV problem.

    I need to safely split a J1772 split-phase input into two parallel chargers inside a project vehicle. Each charger is capable of 3 kW. How would YOU do it?

  23. Wir wünschen unseren internationalen Studierenden in #ElectricalEngineering und #MedicalSystemsEngineering an der der #OVGU Magdeburg jetzt viel Erfolg in der Prüfung #ElectromagneticCompatibility im E-Prüfungszentrum der Universität, in dem sie z.B. auch MATLAB zur Lösung der Aufgaben nutzen können.

  24. We haven't had much interest, perhaps because of too few hashtags.

    Any EE looking to move to Vancouver, BC, for some short term work that could become long term?

  25. I’m a computer hardware engineering student that’s stuck in the “I’m 28 years old and tested into the lowest math class when I applied for college last year so I’m currently taking a precalculus course in my third semester and can’t take my first engineering course until I take like two more math classes” pit, so I ask:

    If I wanted to get into the electrical, engineering, computer, and hardware stuff in a DIY sense to sort of supplement my learning until I get to the actual courses, where would be a good place to start with that? Keep in mind I am very broke at all times.

    I appreciate any tips I get in advance thank you.

  26. Thirty years ago I felt that had give up my career in #electricalengineering because I couldn't find work as a #blackman. #hamradio helped me stay active #technically during those decades and satisfy my innate #curiosity while I was struggling to keep employed because of #agism & #racism. I've recently been given a chance with @nrao_hamradio to reconnect with my former #career and so far it's been thrilling. #AmateurRadio

    Apparently, someone crammed 69666 characters of Unifont 13.0.06 into BDF for u8g2
    #font generation, so BDF evidently doesn't have that limit either, and upstream Unifont doesn't do this. Also, because of FontForge limits crashing when importing a lot of glyphs, evidently the BDF is custom on the u8g2 Github, but the problem is that it hasn't been updated to Unifont 15, so while Plane 1 is reduced two versions, Plane 0 is upgraded two versions, without going over 65535, ensuring better BDF compatibility, especially when doing low-level stuff (evidently not needed here). Then again, Minecraft uses .hex files in 1.20 to get around non-HarfBuzz TrueType limits. Also I can't run Unifont compilation utilities on any machine I've tried, so I'm stuck with what I've got.

    Sometimes it's okay to be proud of what you've got.
    I mean, it will work better on the older Linux builds its intended for, and it is actually generatable without crashes in FontForge, or forcing inflexible code to compile, or using the abridged Bits'N'Picas, which hates the BDF enough to not want to make a .hex.

    Compatibility is key, folx.

    “On a national scale, the United States and Canada rely on a very different makeup of sources to generate their electricity.
    The U.S. primarily uses natural gas, coal, and nuclear power, while Canada relies on both hydro and nuclear. That said, when zooming in on the province or state level, individual primary electricity sources can differ greatly…”
