I've done both. What you called "pain" I called "fun". I started life as an electronic engineer but am now a software engineer and was very comfortable in both areas--including building from the TTL level. So I'm automatically suspicious of anything that calls such things painful.
My kneejerk reaction is "you've never done this professionally" but it's 3am where I'm at and can't watch the video right now.
- Timot05 3y agoPain might not have been the right word indeed. The aspect we wanted to point to was rather the fact that we had to do it over and over again. And so from that perspective it became a “pain”. Ultimately we do love electronics. This is one of our attempts to contribute back to the field.
