Intro
Inspired by Doug Smith's tech tidbits, I posted some general articles which I wrote in the past and present, describing tech related problems which I have been involved in over my short career. Most are general topics which can be applied to most designs. I hope this helps novices and expects solve their design/debug woes. Enjoy!
