Things Engineers Say That Sound Dirty But Really Aren't
- "He's pulling an all-nighter" (working overtime)
- "It's really pumping out the juice" (high-current power supply)
- "That thing's been sucked dry" (battery is discharged)
- "What's the insertion rate?" (how many components can be populated per minute?)
- "Insert your probe into the slot" (test procedure)
- "Tweak the cap to reach peak output" (adjust capacitor for maximum signal)
- "Looks like he has a leaky cap" (the capacitor has failed)
- "High-frequency emissions" (noisy circuit)
- "Gender-bender" (cable adapter)
- "Bit-bang" (emulate a serial port in software)
- "Plug it in and gimme some juice" (turn it on)
