Go to Post It would be wise to consider the reasoning behind the statement rather than the statement itself. Sometimes they are right... other times their statement is incomplete... and other times they really do have no clue what they are talking about. - dtengineering [more]

Re: Famous Last Words

Me as a freshman - "Oh, I forgot to zero out those PWM outputs. Let me do that real quick" followed by "Okay, reset it" followed by ZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzz and a bunch of screams--the first time my program ever bruised anyone...

"Heads up" - our captain (when I was on 1140) was shaking the tether cable, which was faulty because it got caught in a chain. We got power to the OI but no signal. After shaking it for a few seconds, we got signal, and our joysticks were so far out of calibration that the arm came to life and our claw swiped a scratch right across the back of the safety judge's hand. "There goes our safety award"

"Let's see if this works"

"It should work"

Our team leader "What will this autonomous do?" followed by me "Umm....I think....no wait....ummm...let's see"

"This auton will be sweet" ten seconds before the bot flies at 12ft/sec into the opposite end of the field, literally throwing the main battery out onto the field. It was supposed to shift down.

"Yeah, I charged up the pneumatics!"
