There's no law, but do not accept an offer at a startup where the founders / leadership are not willing to explain this to you whenever you ask.

Very true, and I know that. I just wanted to build a guitar because I thought it’d be fun :)

They have the same height adjustment options that most guitar pickups do, the pickups are held on to the mount with two screws and you can screw in/out to adjust the height accordingly. It works in reverse of the normal system since the screws are backwards, but it works

Yep, you're right, I do mean that

These are awesome, thanks for sharing

Ooh that one is easier than mine. Would have been outside the scope for this project though (likely needs custom connectors).

Takes 30 seconds-ish to swap mine, you pull it out, unplug the jack, plug the jack into the next one, slide it in. Not "on stage" easy, but definitely "messing around in my garage" easy.

Good thing it's easy to swap the pickups in my guitar, so I can test things like that easily :)

Yeah, maybe they aren't that important. Using guitar forums as my source of truth maybe isn't the best. In any case, I have them on my guitar :)

Thanks for the tips! I actually tried the guide doohickey but I still failed to get good straight holes. The hard part was that the guitar is not a really level surface to rest the guide on, so I had some complication getting it to sit well.

There appears to be a recent trend of YC companies being increasingly "meta" plays. The increasing number of "startups for startups" worries me, it's a leverage against the success of startups. It will increase the upward and downward slope of the startup market. Leverage leads to bubbles, and bubbles burst

Note: This product looks great, I will probably use it, my comment is not intended to disparage taloflow specifically.

Does it/are there plans to support options?

Done https://github.com/kitspace/awesome-electronics/pull/66

That would be awesome, do you want me to submit a PR?

Ah, that is correct. I guess I didn't realize that. I've used it since it was a free project. I'll update my post accordingly

It definitely depends on what you are building and what you are trying to validate. I use this sort of board to do product validation with early customers. It’s much easier than producing the full DFMed board, and sometimes it’s much faster & reliable than something soldered together. For reference, on my Thermostat project the green hand wired project board took probably 2 hours to assemble, the PCB motherboard takes about 10 minutes.

It’s also great for producing a couple boards when working with other engineers, I can more easily guarantee that we are working with the same hardware setup because all of the connections are made on PCB.

That's exactly where I started when I learned how to do this, glad it could help. If you have any questions about your project specifically feel free to hit me up, I love talking about this stuff

I love this, and also the fact that I can control my devices from control center. Not having to open an app to turn on/off the lights is game changing

Sure. I'll accept that I am just complaining that I can't get from one walled garden to the other. From my perspective, if they are all walled gardens, I might-aswell choose the best one.

Good luck. I'd love to hear how it goes

This is the one [1], sorry about the link not rendering. Pretty simple to use, I just followed the Lightbulb example [2]

I'd be interested in seeing if products can become HomeKit only. Unfortunately you still sort of need your own app for setup, etc. It's a decently sized barrier for manufacturers, and their app ends up shit anyway.

This is cool. It's crazy to me that this sort of thing needs to exist
