You learn something new every day

I'm in a meeting for my day job and one of our suppliers was talking about a PCB fabrication issue they were having, and they used the term "head-in-pillow defect", which I had never heard of before. It's more or less unique to SMD so it's not something we come across often in hobby stuff, but my job is boring enough that it's rare for me to actually learn new things. Maybe I should pay attention more in meetings

Paying attention in meetings makes them pass much more slowly

Wow! I had no idea what a "head-in-pillow defect" was, before today.

After reading the wiki, I still don't understand it: "...rather like a section through a head resting on a pillow." What section?
The bassoon section of an orchestra? The cool-kids section at high-school cafeteria?

Whatever.

At last, I finally have a use for my Electro Optical Terahertz Pulse Reflectometry machine!

Sounds like a fancy name for an old-fashioned cold solder joint to me!
