How do you guys deal with connector/component selection?

When you're dealing with a complex spec like where you need the base connector plus the mating half, specific contacts, backshells, and seals. What does your workflow actually look like?

Are you relying on brand configurators, distributor searches, or just living in the trenches with PDFs and datasheets?

Trying to figure out if there is a better way, or if we are all just suffering in silence. What is the biggest bottleneck or most annoying part of this process for you?

I drove my Kia Telluride hybrid X-Line SX from Mi to Portland.

Definitely had a lead foot going on the 80 mph highways in North Dakota and Montana so that shaved a mpg or two from the trip. But overall thrilled at the performance.

We Brought Alex Anzalone and Derrick Barnes Golfing and Could Not Stop Laughing

For those of you who don't know Aiden started a golf channel on YouTube. It's not enough he's better at sacking Caleb Williams than I am. He's also better than me at golf.
