TBC: this class is analog electronics through the context of building synthesizers. A 1F cap has no real business in any example. He also explicitly doesn't really discuss power electronics. It's all good.

Farads and Pascals are both really shitty units from a practical standpoint. I don’t know how you get consistent unit systems that don’t suck for someone though.

I'm ok with microfarads, and very in favor of banning specious examples.
