My appologies, our posts crossed. I think and I had this page open for some time. You will note from my posts on this forum I am only here to help new linux users... But I do tend to speak my mind...

Sorry tricky, I just can't help myself sometimes. I have not tried to make a flame war. The post about australia was a sidenote relating a post another user made.
Back to Engineering. I guess, if you need a degree to be an engineer in America then if you are a criminal in your early years and mess up your college course, you have no chance of doing what you want later on in life unless you drive a taxi for five years to pay for a degree or have rich parents. I have never seen the need for paper work. Being in my early twenties, I am only doing temp contracts at the moments. If a company is not happy with my work it can fire me. Why do I need to spend a fortune for a peice of paper, when I can learn everything in the field. I do not know what makes a motherboard tick, but I know when it is faulty and needs replacing. I expect in five years I will be able to build a CPU in my garage and a pentium class motherboard in maybe ten. Why should I slave away for years getting a degree when I can get the same money from the certs I have now. Someone coming out of uni is not likely to be that knowledgable, because most uni students spend most of their time smoking dope or contemplating life. Being a non uni young guy with comptia certs, I spend all my awake time learning, does a uni student? Anyway, my main point, I screwed up my college and uni years, but I do not accept a hirarchy of life where those that did well when they were young should have a step ahead of those that made it later in life. I will get an IT degree when I have time. I just want to wait till I can afford a Lamborgini before I bother with all that. Tricky, if I am breaking any rules then please explain it to me. I do not see mention of making flame wars in this forums rules. I did not even try to start a flamer, I was just a bit distracted. |

No offense but you write like your 14. Directed at Hades.

I don't know what you mean by "I can build a CPU in my garage". A simple CPU (like for a small calculator) almost anyone with half a brain could design. A VLSI CPU like the Pentium or Athlon processors are designed by hundreds of engineers and a single person couldn't hope to design one by themselves if they spent a lifetime attempting to do so. Do you have any knowledge of how embedded electronic circuits are manufactured? Unless you have a multi-million dollar cleaning lab filled with sophisticated equipment in your garage (which would have to be able to fit at least 20 cars when empty), you are dreaming. Quote:

Sorry if I'm adding fuel to the fire here tricky, but I just couldn't let some of these comments pass. |

I am not provoked, by Roots. His points were valid and I hate to be seen as a loose cannon.
Stack. I really do not care if I write like I am 14 or like I am 70. I just write what I think. I really can not add much to this thread, except to explain that poor old me probably could produce a pentium class CPU within a garage designed for one car. Just make micro fibre optic cables and copy an old cyrix or even 386 architecture. Make a few adjustments and you will have a pent class CPU. It will last a few min before it melts and it wont be recognised by the pc but it be a pent class CPU for a min or so. Fibre optics travel data a lot faster than copper. A side note. Stick a fan shaped disc in between two magnetic motors, balance the negatice and positive and you will get a system fan spins round so long as the magnets last. You could always design a motherboard to support it. |
Yep, my positronic optical bioputer has been coming along well too. I have the organic molecules switching state okay, so that handles binary data storage for the registers on a molecule level but I'm still having trouble with the molecule size nand gates due to some oxidization problems. I think the lazer frequency isn't quite right. Data transport has been a killer as well due to the various problems with phase shift and so forth...

So how about network engineers? Could they be considered those that design networks/LANS/WANS? Technicians would be the ones who support/troubleshoot them? I ask about that one specifically cause it's the first one that comes to mind.
