No. All electronics will be phased out by 2021
Jaxson Ortiz
yes, we are going to move to cloud-based now. Computation will be done by nitrogen gas molecules floating in the sky.
Elijah Campbell
Yep, it's great. I got my EE degree and graduated with a full-time salary job in web development.
Dominic Clark
What does web development have to do with electrical engineering?
Is this a troll?
David Thompson
>Is this a troll?
No this is current economic climate.
Nolan Bell
I took a masters in numerical analysis and I am now working full-time as a webdev as well.
Adam White
no
Jace Fisher
Not really, webdevs are hired with pretty much any semi-tech degree.
Gabriel Parker
DO they make good money?
Lincoln Sanders
I've heard this story a million times, even one friend we know who's a mechanical engineer got a webdev job
Zachary Parker
Yes and No.
Nathan Robinson
ok?
William Ramirez
I don't know what's good anymore
it gave me a full rider and I make $86k and the insurance is great
Josiah Nguyen
Electrician and industrial technologist here. I think that if you're genuinely good at math and love electrical shit then go for it, but then specialise. You can make hand over fist cash when you're in a niche market that's in demand.
Kevin Allen
Electrical engineers have basically turned into second tier support staff for computer engineers. Twenty years ago a typical electronics product would contain hundreds of components in a very carefully designed circuit. Now all an electrical engineer does is plop a microcontroller on a PCB and hand it to a firmware programmer to do the important work.
Noah Campbell
i have a pet peeve when people mention their salary but not their (city/rural) status.
$90k in SF is $60k in the midwest.
Carter Clark
90k sf is 35k midwest
Jacob Gonzalez
That means it depends on multiple factors idiot
Jacob Lewis
sounds like your degree was useless then lmao
Parker Cruz
:/
William Rivera
I'm taking a certificate in "Electronics and Electromechanical Technology" at a community college. Few people on Jow Forums ever seem to want to talk about stuff like RCL circuits, 3-phase power, or anything fun like that. The closest I see here is shit posting about who's got the best wall plugs.
