    This would be an interesting idea if you were able to solve the problem of inner layers. Currently to reverse engineer a board with more than 2 layers an x-ray machine is required …

    This guidance may help for sample collection, but wouldn't fully address the whole chain of custody. If the test equipment or handling tools/processes in the lab expose the samples…

    I've previously been advised by my doctor that PFAS tests are of limited utility due to the lack of process controls which could introduce contamination. Given how novel this area …

    Eagle is far from an industry standard. In fact I don't remember hearing about a single company who uses it. Perhaps some small companies preferred Eagle. In industry it is far mor…

    This is not a new concern, hardware designers almost always have tradeoffs like this. Just because the interface is standardized doesn't mean the interchangeable modules are identi…

    In the eyes of the decision makers, the loss of functionality you describe is a feature, not a bug. Making it harder for you to procure food "reduces waste". It is the same line of…

    I suspect the battery arrived in "cut-off" mode. This is a mode which reduces battery drain specifically during the period between manufacture and customer use. In this mode the ba…

    You seem to be extrapolating that since refined grains do not contain Mg, no foods do. This is not the case. OP can eat other foods instead of processed grains to obtain Mg.
