Makerspace application advice

I'm applying to an intern ship in a makerspace and I don't know what to answer for two of the questions.

For context, this makerspace does almost everything; 3D printing, laser cutting, electronics, desktop CNC machining, PCB fabrication, and many other things.

The questions I can't answer are:

  1. Share a story showing how you supported or collaborated with others. (60 sec)

  2. Show your creativity: Pick two random items in arm’s reach and explain how you’d combine them into something useful. (60 sec)

They both have a time limit of 60 seconds to answer them.

Most of my projects have been solo, so I don't know what to say for the first question, but I have 3 ideas:

- Helping my friend learn C, he's a beginner and has been learning it as his first language and found many things hard to understand, so I used to help him.

- Helping my brother (10 years) learn electronics. He likes it as a hobby, but I'm always with him when learning it for safety, support, and help.

- One time at that makerspace someone was doing a project with an ESP32 and some sensors, but it wasn't working, so she asked for help. I couldn't find out what was the problem, but I tried my best to help.

I also have done some open source contributions but they were mostly documentation fixes, so I don't want that to be my focus in this question.

Ich willst lerne Deutsche

Hallo! Ich lerne kleine Deutsche in meine schüle, aber ich willst machen meine Deutsche gut. Ich lerne Vocab in schule aber nicht lerne gut grammatik. Was kann ich machen für lerne Deutsche given my current level in German? Can I start by consuming German content like YouTube and books or is it too early for that? Sorry I don't know how to say that last part in German.

انا طالب ثانوي وعايز اي شغل في الصيف

وظيفة، عمل حر، تدريب، تطوع ، مش مهم. المهم بس الشغل يكون في حاجة انا بحبها. انا بحب البرمجة والالكترونيات والmaking بشكل عام. مستوايا في الانجليزي كويس جدا. وعندي خبرة كويسة في البرمجة ومشاريع اقدر اعرضها لو جتلي فرصة interview.

المشكلة بس اني داخل ثانوية عامة السنة الجاية ومعظم الشركات بيبقوا عايزين على الاقل طلاب جامعة فالموضوع صعب شويه.

ومش عايز شغل كول سنتر.

حد يعرف فرصة مناسبة او عنده نصيحة او مكان ممكن اقدم فيه ؟

How do I tell the DRC that my component's through holes aren't plated?

I'm fabricating PCBs by myself using CNC machine, so I don't have plated through holes. How do I make the DRC know this so that it doesn't consider every through hole component as a connection between the front and back layers? f.e., when I put a header pin footprint that's connected to both front and back ground planes, the DRC considers those two ground planes connected because it thinks there is copper in the holes, which is not the case in my PCB.

I would prefer that this can be done in a per-component way, because some components like through hole resistors or diodes don't have this problem because they can be soldered from both sides.

Shaky hands

I'm 17. Male. Approximately 185cm and 60kg. I don't take medications. I don't smoke. I used to have low ferritin levels, but now it's good. I have Vitamin D deficiency. I don't drink coffee or energy drinks often, and I don't drink alcohol at all. My TSH levels are normal.

I've always had shaky hands, as long as I can remember, the shakiness doesn't get better or worse. The shakiness is equal in both hands. They shake even if I don't drink caffeine. If I'm anxious the shaking increases slightly. They sometimes shake more when I put them in a specific position, but I think the position is random or changes. If I extend my fingers the shaking gets worse. If I try to do precise hand movements, e.g. when soldering small electronics, the shaking increases. If I rest my hands on something like a table, they are stable. My hands don't feel weak or numb. Also, I don't think I can keep my head and legs 100% still unless I rest my leg on something or am standing, if I raise my leg on something it moves in a constant speed even if I don't feel it, approximately 2-4cm movement at approximately 4 times a second. This has never bothered me, other than bad handwriting, until I started soldering as a hobby, and it's very difficult for me to solder small electronics. Is there a way to decrease this shaking, especially in my hands, so I can solder more easily?
