Funny post. I came from purely webdev software engineering to hardware engineering and let me tell you, it is an interesting coalescence of mechanical, electrical, and software engineering (both firmware and regular 'ol software). I sit in on several different design reviews and it kills me how similar each engineer thinks even with such disparate differences between each discipline. In terms of difficulty for my smoothbrain to comprehend from easiest to hardest to understand, I'd say it goes mechanical, software, electrical, and then firmware. Like holy hell, firmware engineering is a dark art. Kudos to firmware engineers.
