I think (heh) it’s just a great quote. “think until you can think no more”.
Today I started to re-learn how to solder – properly, with flux and hot air and SMD and mistakes. I had two very good people teaching me, and yet at the end of it I connected the terminals backwards and fried the microcontroller. After that I couldn’t think any more.
This week at work my simulations strongly suggested that some images had been acquired with one pulse sequence, but the UI of the scanner (and the deeper technical UI) indicated this was not the case. Anyway, I really thought until I could think no more about that. It turned out that I was right in the end :))
