    Absolutely a scam. Hang around here and you'll soon spend your paycheck on microcontrollers, FPGAs, soldering tools and test equipment. You'll lust after multiTHz bandwidth scopes, programmable terraamp power supplies, infinitely programmable signal generators, and high speed FPGA fabric devices with billions of LUTs. All to have your garage door open when you SHOULD be coming home, not when you actually do so.

    Bow down to your finite state machine empowered overlords!
