Recipes

• Case for ObjectsExoBrain#InputModule
  • to build during TmpLab01
  • Path:/pub/inputmodule.svg
    • Ctrl+Shift+c to get path (vertex)
    • autosmooth to change a line of through its vertex to a nice curve
      • to add to Tools#Inkscape
  • add discussion with killer @ 9:30 16/06/2010

Good practices

• focus on the actual needs, not what is trendy (e.g. new material)
  • check behind what the person say they want but rather what they truly need
    • ask why with 10 recursion depth
• know the precision of the machine you'll use
• know the physical property of the components
  • dimensions, weight, heat, resistance to problems, ...
