anyone who's had custom pcbs made before: do you use the soldermask color to encode anything, or do you just choose colors for aesthetics (or just going for the cheapest, though most places will at least do a few basic colors for the same price)

I imagine every electrical engineer has their own list of "comfortable" parts that they use all the time

ours are like... TIP122, IRF540, (2N/MMBT)(3904/3906/2222), UJ3N120065K3S (look, SiC high-voltage JFETs are useful things, i don't care how weird or moderately-expensive they are), IXD_614, 5-1634503-1, stackpole RNF series resistors, probably a few others that don't come to mind immediately
