<p>the nice thing about like specifications or datasheets or something is that they&#39;re usually very engaging, sometimes quite cursed, and only hurt me consensually if at all. this is why i like them so much</p>

<p>i have a really profitable coping mechanism</p>

<p>sometimes, when i&#39;m feeling sad, i lie down with a screen of some sort and read a new specification or a datasheet for a device i think is neat or cursed</p><p>this is how i know so much about technology</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> I need to clean my desk and find that 8-channel ADC, then write a zero-to-complete guide to implementing a Glasgow applet for a random peripheral using information from the datasheet.</p>
