Don't open that project on the server, I'm using it here.

"If you see the magic smoke rise from your robot, chances are it ain't working no more"

A coach reiterated this to us today after we burned our Raspberry Pi. Good news is that the students learned where NOT to put electrical components

Our mentor sadly remarked that "I never get original ideas, I can only steal from people" and another mentor said "Congratulations! You're the next Thomas Edison!"

"Don't hurt yourself!"

-Me, anytime I hear some loud bang somewhere in the shop. (The exclamation is to express loud volume, but not high pitch. I'm not panicked or anything.)
