A comment on The RC2014 Retro Computer. Parent comment
Some of the resistors are mounted vertically. Getting these the right way round is only important so other components physically fit on the board.
I think the FTDI header has resistors that would interfere with an IC socket.
EDIT: And it's nice to use a consistent orientation so it's easier to read the values so it's easier to check your work.
