Stumbled upon this whilst googling for electronics info: Difference between electronic engineering and computer science (http://philip.greenspun.com/humor/eecs-difference-explained)

I love happy endings... :p

Makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside!

Justice indeed. :D

It's like the engineer add-on to the famous "Is the glass half-empty or half-full?" conundrum. We all know that the pessimist thinks the glass is half-empty, while the optimist sees the glass as being half-full.
The new addition, the engineer, realizes that the glass is twice as big as it needs to be. :)

Hehe, justice for engineers :yes:
Also, the picture on the right looks a lot like the semester project I'm working on.

And the lesson is, electrical engineers are bitter about making less money than computer scientists. :p

I think not. Computer scientists are ten a penny, but chartered engineers are hard to come by these days. Or they are round here anyway...

Not here. Companies here fight over qualified Java and .NET architects, analysts and programmers. And electrical engineers end up having to get crappy jobs as phone company repairmen. :p

Fair enough. But here, graduate engineers earn more than anyone except lawyers and doctors. :)

Interesting. There aren't many engineering courses at universities there, I suppose? Around here there are tons of them, and most of them are fairly easy to get in.

Come to Scotland we have more engineers than we know what to do with. Literally.

I will need to decide between these and some other options in another year. :p

Does that mean I should emigrate to Brazil?

If you want a job at one of the areas I mentioned, I could have one for you at Dell or HP the moment you arrive. Don't even think you'd need to know portuguese to work at either of those companies. Wouldn't pay much by UK standards, I guess, but it's quite good pay for local standards.
