Once you have confirmed it's good now it's time to solder.

Heat all the way up, rub it with solder, scratch it. This is impossible. Consider throwing this through the window. Curse hackaday. Curse electronics. Curse the bugs. Curse the florida heat. You have work in 4 hours and haven't even begun to wind down for the night.

Decide that you want to go to bed so this is now a QR code AND a flashlight. Skip the resistor and run it straight off USB. Shenzen's fastest said in the amazon description that these are good for 20mA so you know you can trust that. With 230 LEDs in parallel that's over four amps total so only the best power supplies will be capable of blowing this baby up.

Time for the USB port. Want to guess how that's gonna go? I mean it kinda sucked but compared to the rest it was a walk in the park. Record a video to prove that it works.

SIKE AGAIN! That's gonna take at least half an hour and you know you're gonna break a few of those joints. Work is in three hours and you still need to write it up for HaD.

Pour a celebratory 'this thing is *finally* finished and I can go to sleep once I finish writing this up' drink. You have an hour and a half until you need to wake up. Better hurry and put it on hackaday.io and hope they don't check the project before you wake up and correct all your sleep deprived mistakes.
