HAHAHAHA GOOD LUCK! I'm in my final year of my EE study and I cannot wait to escape this mental asylum

Electrical Engineers are the psychos for using j instead of i. Absolutely bonkers.

Yeah, I agree. They messed up the scheme we had going. It was a good thing, and electrical engineers had to come and be all different, confusing everyone else along the way.

From my point of view the mathematicians are evil. I can't stand them using i in my math classes, messing my whole scheme up. Respect for my physics prof in my first semester for switching to use the correct letter j

Well, then you are lost!

That's a bit much dude, mathematicians gave us complex numbers. You can't hate too much on the ones who invented our jobs 🤣

imagine using i instead of e1^e2

There is hope for you after the asylum. My daughter has an EE degree. While in school, she would call me every October and tell me how terrible it was and that she wanted to drop out. I would talk her off the ledge, and she got through.

Now she's working, making more money than I do in her early twenties, and she loves loves loves her job.

Keep going!

Luckily I have 6 years of Electronics manufacturing experience, so the math and theory are the things I'll need to learn most of. Unfortunately, those things are the hardest part...
