Electronics for Beginners [book]

 Electronics for Beginners [book,nonfiction]

I'VE BEEN DOING A BUNCH OF HOBBY ELECTRONICS FOR AT LEAST TEN YEARS AND KINDA LONGER THAN THAT. BUT IT'S ALL SELF TAUGHT SO I HAVE A LOT OF THE ISSUES OF THAT, WHERE THE STUFF I AM INTERESTED AND USE I KNOW TONS ABOUT BUT ANYTHING OUTSIDE THAT I KNOW BASICALLY ZERO AND HAVE TO STRUGGLE WITH GUESSING OR CARGO CULT ANSWERS. SO I RENTED A TEXT BOOK AND READ THROUGH THAT. I MEAN, I DON'T FEEL LIKE THERE WAS ANYTHING AMAZING IN THIS, BUT I DO THINK IT'S GOOD TO WORK ON THAT SORT OF BLIND SPOT. LIKE I MEAN, IF YOU SHOWED ME A DIAGRAM I'D KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER THAT A BUTTON CAN COME AFTER A COMPONANT AND WORK THE SAME, BUT JUST READING SOMETHING POINTING BASIC STUFF LIKE THAT IS GOOD TO MAKE ME REALIZE "OH RIGHT, I NEVER EVER DESIGN ANYTHING THAT WAY EVER". I DON'T KNOW, I THINK IT HELPS. 

PS. READ THIS BECAUSE I THE LAST TWO BIG PROJECTS AND LAST 250 DOLLARS I'VE SPENT ON ELECTRONICS HOBBY STUFF HAVE FAILED AND ON BOTH OF THEM IT WAS ME MAKING VERY STUPID BASIC MISTAKES WITH PASSIVE COMPONANTS INSTEAD OF REAL MISTAKES WITH ANY OF THE COMPLICATED PARTS. I GOTTA GET BETTER AT EYEBALLING THE BORING PARTS INSTEAD OF TRIAL AND ERROR ON BASIC MISTAKES, LIKE I'M FINE IF I MESS UP SOME BIG MICROCONTROLLER SETUP AND HAVE TO TRY THAT AGAIN BUT IT FEELS REAL BAD TO HAVE SOMETHING FRY AND REALIZE I JUST PUT A CAPACITOR IN WRONG OR SOMETHING SUPER BASIC.
