*Nonsense.*

Philosophy, electrical engineering, probably some coding, and micro biology were going to be some big focal points.

2019-04-12 09:59:05 UTC  

@🍄The Mad Philosopher🍄 Somewhere should offer an engineering degree with flexibility

2019-04-12 09:59:12 UTC  

Free electives and such

2019-04-12 09:59:15 UTC  

Electrical Engineering really sucks, ngl. It’s very useful but super bland.

2019-04-12 09:59:32 UTC  

I'm not a good enough mathematician to do EEng

2019-04-12 09:59:40 UTC  

You also need to do Dif Eq for most high level circuitry courses.

2019-04-12 09:59:40 UTC  

I can do Mechanics but Electrical equations don't stick

2019-04-12 09:59:47 UTC  

I was an electrician in the marines so I wanted something I know really well.

2019-04-12 09:59:55 UTC  

Electrical equations are frustrating.

2019-04-12 10:00:10 UTC  

I chose chemical mostly because I found fluid dynamics and basic thermo the easiest 😄

2019-04-12 10:00:22 UTC  

Fluid dynamics easy?

2019-04-12 10:00:28 UTC  

I’m glad people like you exist.

2019-04-12 10:00:30 UTC  

I really like fluid dynamics don't ask why

2019-04-12 10:00:56 UTC  

If you really like analog, Phil, then EE may work for you.

2019-04-12 10:00:58 UTC  

That being said I have to be motivated to do it, my current job I don't do it so my knowledge has faded somewhat

2019-04-12 10:01:10 UTC  

I do

2019-04-12 10:01:51 UTC  

I think the coding would definitely be elective. That's basically a side project.

2019-04-12 10:02:08 UTC  

“There’s 80,000 Volts. Don’t worry, as long as the current doesn’t go above a few milliamperes, you’ll be *fine*.”

2019-04-12 10:02:17 UTC  

😆 😆 😆

2019-04-12 10:02:30 UTC  

“*Perfectly safe.*”

2019-04-12 10:02:38 UTC  

No shit. Take all the volts you want, but watch them amps.

2019-04-12 10:02:41 UTC  

What's life without a little risk

2019-04-12 10:02:54 UTC  

I personally find it exciting bordering on arousing being around really dangerous chemicals

2019-04-12 10:03:04 UTC  

Fucking maddening logic that somehow works out

2019-04-12 10:03:39 UTC  

I'm convinced all of electrical engineering and science is just black magicians waving their hands and it all works out

2019-04-12 10:03:50 UTC  

Maybe I'm stupid but I could just never _get_ it like I did with mechanics

2019-04-12 10:03:52 UTC  

😆 😆 😆

2019-04-12 10:04:13 UTC  

If you want a basic introduction to Computer Engineering, Phil, buy an Arduino Uno from Amazon for like $25. Tack on a tiny breadboard and grab some wires you have handy.

2019-04-12 10:04:37 UTC  

Wanna try enough electricity to try a rain forest? It's ok, just watch the amps.

2019-04-12 10:04:43 UTC  

***WHAT?!?!?!***

2019-04-12 10:04:50 UTC  

Then read the entire godforsaken 500 page manual for this 3 inch device.

2019-04-12 10:04:51 UTC  

Fry*

2019-04-12 10:05:25 UTC  

Then go to YouTube

2019-04-12 10:05:47 UTC  

And knock yourself out watching poorly made videos narrated by Indian people.

2019-04-12 10:06:11 UTC  

What is it with Indian people? They're always so goofy but plug in any engo topic and there's some guy from the uni of god knows where who is a wizard on it

2019-04-12 10:06:12 UTC  

And basically that’s how you can become a really mediocre Computer Engineer.

2019-04-12 10:06:26 UTC  

Oh, actually

2019-04-12 10:06:46 UTC  

I might have a link to the older version of the textbook we use in Microprocessors.

2019-04-12 10:06:54 UTC  

Let me see if I can find it.
