Is there anyone that can extend their knowledge to mechanical and electronic engineering, as well as software? I feel that my breadth in software knowledge is reaching the limits of my mental capacity and I have to shed useless weight now (i.e. I haven't kept up with frontend for 3 years now)
My father was an electronic engineer, and I would love to get into it eventually as I grew up organising his components drawer, burning LEDs and licking solder wire (yeah.. I regret it now), but that's going to be something I'll have time for when I retire.

A tiny bit of ME knowledge also helps (consider thermal management, consider vibrations during shipping, consider vibration in use, etc). For robotics and mechatronics, ME knowledge becomes far more important.
- acomjean 3y agoYou have a limited time to learn things. I learn for projects, that keeps my scope limited. I think I can an extend a little into the non software realm, though my undergrad degree/ first jobs were in civil engineering. I migrated to computers and ended up going back to school for that. I work writing software for biologists now, though my understanding of the underlying biology in that is shallow (Compared to my biologist coworkers)
