Once upon a time, I was a competent electronics technician. No wizard, like some, but I could fix broken satellite equipment with the best of them. And trained several of them myself. I'm not quite to the point where I regard it as black magic, but I may be getting there. As far as programming the equipment, my salad days for that were long ago. Designing equipment? Nope. Though I could give the folks who do a few pointers based on my skills as a maintainer. "Do NOT put the controls so close together that you will activate one control while trying to activate another." "Leave room for the maintainer to put his or her hands inside so they can work on the machine." "DO NOT expect all maintainers to have size XXXS hands." Mine happen to be XL, and I've worked with folks who made my hands look small.
