I wonder how much of that is component tolerances. If you have two identical circuits with +-1% in resistors and +-5% in caps, how different would these sound with the components in each circuit at opposite ends of the tolerance range?

I can see that happening maybe a few times, but it seems ineffective on a large scale.

- Make stuff! Adafruit has some great kits and project instructions. Find something that looks interesting and make it.

edit: I think the biggest thing holding me to being average at best is practical experience in larger systems. In school, I was always good at the theory parts of computer science, but did so-so in projects. In my professional experience, I think that still holds true: I can manage language intricacies, and write pretty clean code for smaller problems, but I can get into trouble with architecture-level stuff like defining models. I also have a tendency to over-engineer solutions to complex problems.
