Description

Join Seve (founder of tscircuit) and Matt (founder of atopile) for a fascinating deep dive into system reliability, test automation, and the future of PCB prototyping! 🔧

In this episode, our hardware innovators explore:

* The hidden math that determines if your projects will succeed or fail

* How Tesla solved reliability issues in their MegaPack battery systems

* Why most people's approach to testing is fundamentally broken

* The exciting future of next-day PCB prototyping in the US

* Game-changing AR/VR tools for electronics debugging

Plus exciting discussions on:

* Running AI on ‘90s computers (and why it matters for today)

* The revolution coming in rapid PCB prototyping

* Different approaches to hardware debugging and test points

* The fascinating world of solderless connectors and ultrasonic welding

* Why China can prototype electronics so much faster than the US (and how we can catch up)

Matt shares insights from his experience at Tesla, while Seve brings his expertise in modern testing practices and hardware development. Whether you're a hobbyist working on electronics projects, a professional engineer, or just curious about the future of technology manufacturing, this episode offers valuable insights into building more reliable systems.

Watch as Matt and Seve break down complex engineering concepts into practical insights, and get a glimpse into the exciting future of rapid PCB prototyping that could revolutionize hardware development in the US. From probability theory to laser-etched PCBs, this conversation covers the cutting edge of hardware engineering and testing.
