probably got a computer engineering degree and get filtered out of jobs they're qualified for because they don't have an electrical engineering degree and people assume they don't understand simple things like how semiconductors work even though it's basically the same degree but when they finally do get past HR then the manager is like “you're a computer guy right? can you fix this printer?” And then they're like yeah i can fix it but not because I'm a computer guy I just worked in IT helldesks to pay for college and proceeds to turn off the copier with the big switch hidden 2 covers down and turn it back on again and it works again but then they're suddenly the computer guy for every stupid thing around the office and they try to set boundaries and then crowdstroke happens and everyone looks at them to fix it and they know how to fix it because they saw the fix on lemmy while doom scrolling that morning before they even got to work but they say just wait for IT to fix it I'm an engineer not an IT guy and then an otter engineer says ''i can fix with leenux'' and proceeds to destroy the windows bootloader, I'm not even sure how he managed that, the fix should have been pretty simple with a live usb just mount the disk and delete the bad file, and then IT shows up and manages to fix all of the office in a few minutes except the one with the broken boot loader so that has to get reimaged and even though they didn't do anything they're suddenly even more the computer guy because they knew the fix was coming and i'm not bitter about it.
I’ll quote Jeremy Clarkson on this one. It seems fitting
A turbo: exhaust gasses go into the turbocharger and spin it, witchcraft happens and you go faster.
And then we have beavers which have seemingly mastered the use of gates in order to direct and impede flow
Plot twist: they are aware, but just don't care.
This is such a charged topic, but I’d bet this otter is just going through a phase. I’m sure whatever shenanigans it does will get discharged soon.
Ok, I’m at capacity of my puns. I better stop before I pop a cap.
Average Izzet otters
Otter chippy > otter sparky
An electrical engineering course usually won't teach you how semiconductors work, so those other species should look on the mirror before criticizing.
What? That is basic knowledge for an electrical engineer and should be part of any curriculum. Where are you from where that is not teached?
Hum... So, condensed matter physics should be standard at an EE curriculum? With the necessary quantum mechanics requirement too? Some discrete topology would help, so I guess we should add that too, after the continuous as a requirement, of course.
They also won't generally teach you how to crack open clams and crustaceans with stones on your tummy.
Otterly disappointing
They otter go back to school.
