Philosophy, electrical engineering, probably some coding, and micro biology were going to be some big focal points.
@🍄The Mad Philosopher🍄 Somewhere should offer an engineering degree with flexibility
Free electives and such
Electrical Engineering really sucks, ngl. It’s very useful but super bland.
I'm not a good enough mathematician to do EEng
You also need to do Dif Eq for most high level circuitry courses.
I can do Mechanics but Electrical equations don't stick
I was an electrician in the marines so I wanted something I know really well.
Electrical equations are frustrating.
I chose chemical mostly because I found fluid dynamics and basic thermo the easiest 😄
Fluid dynamics easy?
I’m glad people like you exist.
I really like fluid dynamics don't ask why
If you really like analog, Phil, then EE may work for you.
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
I do
I think the coding would definitely be elective. That's basically a side project.
“There’s 80,000 Volts. Don’t worry, as long as the current doesn’t go above a few milliamperes, you’ll be *fine*.”
😆 😆 😆
“*Perfectly safe.*”
What's life without a little risk
I personally find it exciting bordering on arousing being around really dangerous chemicals
Fucking maddening logic that somehow works out
I'm convinced all of electrical engineering and science is just black magicians waving their hands and it all works out
Maybe I'm stupid but I could just never _get_ it like I did with mechanics
😆 😆 😆
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.
Wanna try enough electricity to try a rain forest? It's ok, just watch the amps.
***WHAT?!?!?!***
Then read the entire godforsaken 500 page manual for this 3 inch device.
Fry*
Then go to YouTube
And knock yourself out watching poorly made videos narrated by Indian people.
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
And basically that’s how you can become a really mediocre Computer Engineer.
Oh, actually
I might have a link to the older version of the textbook we use in Microprocessors.
Let me see if I can find it.
I've watched a few videos and tried to read up on it a bit, but it made my head hurt. I need to be hands on or it's all over my head.
That’s why I said you gotta buy that stuff
