The Alien Engineer

Crash Landing!

Who the hell are you?

Hi! I'm just a guy. This is my blog dedicated to pretty much whatever I want, personal or professional. I made this because resumes suck and my projects are much better documented and shown off in a portfolio-type format.

THAT BEING SAID, why not also share stuff I find interesting and intriguing to whoever stumbles upon this site?

It's free knowledge! Who doesn't like learning for free?

What's your goal?

For this blog? Nothing in particular, let me be an orc who yaps about RF technology. My personal mission is to make amateur- and hobbyist level-RF technology more accessible and affordable than ever before. They say you don't truly understand something unless you can teach it, so it's a win-win for me and the reader.

For my portfolio? To show my peers and to remind myself that I have a lot more than a small piece of paper can show. I wish I could put plots and pictures on my resume, but it is what it is.

Blasting Back Off!

Sometimes when we give it our best shot, we still fail. Like what happened to me earlier this year. You crash-land and it hurts and your space station is all busted up and you're lost and have no idea what to do. Cue the "Ohshitohshitohshitohshitohfuckohshit" (repeated ad nauseum, of course)

I'm with you, my dude/dudette. We're all in this together, orcs and humans.

Remember:

Launching without a payload is still flying. You're still building and contributing to the platform.

Fuck impostor syndrome. You deserve it.
