Im doing software engineering now, but did my undergraduate in ECE. ECE is quite broad. It covers signals & systems, electricity and magnetism, basic circuits, embedded devices, to name a few. What area are you interested in?

Its going to be hard to learn all without a degree, but pick a subarea. How low area are you considering? Embedded shouldn't be a giant transition. Fabricating transitors is a whole other level

I own a box fan that is labeled "Made in the USA from imported parts". I guess it was cheaper to ship flat

Where do you intend to use it? I have an older Fire tablet that, while never fast to begin with, is frustrating slow. Ive been using it to remote into my desktop, and want to experiment running linux/windows/android/chromeOs or something in a VM and rdp into it.

Sort of. I work for a defense contractor, so we use an air gapped sytems. I log into gateway servers that run Solaris. Heck, until a few weeks ago, It was even on Sunrays thin clients. However, I then just ssh onto linux servers. I do occasionally support older prorgrams on solaris and other ancient unix systems. Found systems without Perl on it. And once got a bash error report that had some MIT email address.

We are finally migrating to Bitbucket from Clearcase. Real sympathies should be for whoever is still stuck using Clearcase
