Averagesupernova replied to the thread B Analog power supply output question.If you cleaned that schematic up to make it more readable...... - .....it still won't work. -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread I'm trying to intuit how pull-up and pull-down resistors work.Hint: You always have an infinite number of infinite resistances in parallel with the open switch. You have that even with no switch. If... -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread Magnetoreception in Animals.We did this as kids outdoors with a blindfold and being lead around. We knew the area well but it was very easy to get lost. Get lead... -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread I'm trying to intuit how pull-up and pull-down resistors work.The part you do have correct is that GND = GND = GND. - What is Req1 and Req2? Equivalent? Why would you have an Req1? R1 is always in... -

Well, I think you need some thoughts to be expressed first to have any use for proper grammar. Grammar does not makes those thoughts. -

My position*, which still needs clarification even to myself is, Colleges and Universities should require a student to at least learn... -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread Why do we spend so little time learning grammar in college?.The point is that there is a point we no longer accept the poor return on investment. We should choose to fix the problem instead of... -

That's the usual reason given by teachers (who certainly are not unbiased observers), but there are reasons beyond the over-simplified... -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread I'm trying to intuit how pull-up and pull-down resistors work.Do you know how to apply the results you got to determine what the voltage will be on the pin in each case? -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread I'm trying to intuit how pull-up and pull-down resistors work.When the switch is closed you have a zero ohm resistor in parallel with R2. When the switch is open you have a resistor of infinite ohms... -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread I'm trying to intuit how pull-up and pull-down resistors work.I really have to wonder. -

Well, college administrators certainly believe that, and there is a common implication (sometimes implied, sometimes stated explicitly)... -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread Why do we spend so little time learning grammar in college?.My position has been that we need to fix what is causing high school grads to not be competent in grammar, etc before they get to... -

Whether university is or isn't different is not relevant if the students coming into the university are supposed to be ready for this... -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread Why do we spend so little time learning grammar in college?.This is not necessarily agreed upon. Of course I can take it a step farther and ask for the definition of general education. - My...
