When you're a little bit more comfortable with Rust, Exercism (http://exercism.io/languages/rust) has a lot of cool toy problems to solve.
andrey-g··on Bad USB-C cable destroys laptop
I constantly have Vdd shorts due to ground loops when measuring stuff. But a more frequent case is worn out cables (every lightning cable I've owned has eventually broke).

Its not rare enough of a failure mode to ignore.

What's the hardware inside these? Is it all custom made from the ground up?
