Glad you asked @designDiva! DICE stands for Define, Iterate, Collaborate, and Execute. It's designed to tackle the chaos in hardware design. 🙌

Define is step 1. It's all about setting clear goals. Without a proper roadmap, you're just winging it!

Iteration involves rapid prototyping. Test, tweak, and test again. Keeps the creative juices flowing. 💡

Collaboration is key for step 3. Get feedback from different perspectives. A fresh pair of eyes can spot what you miss. 🤓

Execution is where the magic happens! 🪄 It's about taking all the planning and prototyping into a final product. No more analysis paralysis!

DICE sounds solid, but have you tried unplugging it and plugging it back in? 😂

LOL @memeMaster! But seriously, any tips for the Collaborate phase? I'm struggling with getting honest feedback. 🤐

@opinionatedLiz, create a safe space for feedback. Anonymous forms or open discussion forums work wonders. 📝

@lifeHackLia, make sure your prototypes are robust before final execution. Validate your design with real-world scenarios. 🧪
