Once had a recruiter end my screening by blurting out "So yeah, we've got a 4 billion dollar valuation, we're looking for the best... I'll pass you along to our hiring manager and... Well, we'll see 😏😏😏"

Sometimes I think I'm a techie then I read something like this and feel humbled
Note to self: JLCPCB basic parts green LED (KT-0805G) is INSANELY bright. Especially compared to the basic parts red LED (NCD0805R1)
If you look in the datasheet, red has a typical luminous intensity of 115mcd at 20mA while green is 300mcd at just 5mA. That's 3x the brightness at 1/4 the current 🤯

Actual comment from my coworker on one of his junior IC's task threads:
"This information is vague and wrong. Could you rewrite it to be clear and correct?"
I'm obsessed. The bluntness. The conciseness. The PATIENCE. "I asked you for a report. This is a turnip." Classic
