I spent half of the day trying to work out why I couldn't program a PIC10F202, only to find out that I had soldered an identical looking (but very different) LT1933 in its place.
The two devices were in trays next to each other and one jumped ship ship at some point!
Help me feel better - What annoying things have happened to you?
Fact - Beethoven wrote his first symphony in C
it was a while ago but i did spend a day bleeding the brakes on the p6 wondering why i wasn't getting any fluid through because i had replaced the brake master cylinder kept checking further and further away from the calipers (the rear ones are inboard behind and above the diff a real git to get to) only when i finally worked my way all the way back to the brake reservoir to find i still had the clamp on it from when i clamped it off to replaces the master cylinder. i never did find the clamp after i threw it hard!!!
I once spent many hours trying to debug a program I was building, only to find out that (for some bizarre reason) the *.exe file wasn't written to whenever I tried compiling it...
Devoted my life to programming...
