What It Feels Like To Include An Electrical Engineer In Your Project

The eternal battle between perfectionism and practicality! Electrical engineers sobbing uncontrollably at the mere suggestion of using pre-made solutions while the rest of the engineering world casually drops in an Arduino and calls it a day. The electrical engineer's soul is physically wounded by the thought of not designing custom PCB boards from scratch—it's like suggesting a gourmet chef use instant ramen. Meanwhile, other engineers are living their best lives in plug-and-play paradise. This is why project timelines mysteriously triple whenever an EE joins the team!

The Sacred Spacing Of Mathematical Typography

The mathematical typography struggle is real! The top equation shows the blasphemous sin of writing mathematical expressions without proper spacing (2x dx instead of 2x \, dx). The bottom panel shows the correct formatting with proper spacing between variables and differentials - and that intense, bloodshot eye represents every mathematician's visceral reaction when they spot improper LaTeX spacing. The difference is subtle to normal humans but causes physical pain to anyone who's ever submitted a paper to a mathematical journal. It's like nails on a chalkboard for people who spend their lives arranging symbols in perfect harmony.
