I know they’re tight spots, but the test point labeling is a bit messy and unclear

    @craigjb@fosstodon.org I wish the industry would allow finer screenprint line widths. When you have 0201's there's not enough room to cram them all in. I started deleting all of the ref designators off my boards - it was way too cluttered and I never used them. I always have kicad on a giant monitor for a map if needed. This frees up space for important labels.

    When you play around with embedded electronics and FPGAs, it’s funny how often you find yourself in need of a USB _mini_, not micro, cable. The little USB-C to mini adapters off aliexpress seem to work fine.
