Today was a very long day… as in, I just got back to my room and haven’t even started my cases for tomorrow! Ahh! I guess I can see why some people do cases for an entire week on the weekend. I should’ve planned ahead a bit more…
Anyway, not going to go into much detail right now, even though there’s so much to talk about! Let me just show a picture I took a couple hours ago while walking to a meeting…
Cloudy Day on the Charles
It’s kind of beautiful in it’s own way. This was right before the sun started to shine… the first 5 minutes of sunlight in the last 4 days! Anyway, another picture of what are sure to be many, many pictures of the Charles on this blog.
Also wanted to throw up two pictures of a major class project that has been consuming a bit of time lately. We’re designing an “assembly line” for a manufacturing facility… namely, the construction of some circuit boards within Shad. The circuit boards are fairly basic — 5 or so stripped wires, two resistors, a capacitor, an IC chip, a couple LEDs, and a buzzer… just enough to provide a few minutes of manufacturing time and output a testable product. Still, it’s a fascinating exercise. It’s a great way to experience first-hand all the difficulties (operating and financial decisions) that go into creating a steady-state manufacturing facility. More to come. For now, here’s a couple photos of the raw materials:
