As a now retired guy who grew up loving to question almost everything, it was easy for me to get into electronics when I was able to. (I was a little late, not until my mid thirties.) I especially love reading manuals from the things I purchased.

However, I noticed that a lot of people my age didn't share my interest in this area. I helped as often as they would let me, but to a man, they just weren't willing to take the time to get interested. They just wanted their stuff to work. They also had no idea of all the features their products were capable of performing. (Cellphone anyone?)

I've often wondered if it was the way I was 'wired' or if I just had the urge to know these things. Well done on the project!

I understand that, I'm like that as well. And not many in my circles are similarly wired. I like to tinker with electronics and different systems and also as a SWE coding random stuff, but not everyone is wired like that.

Long time ago when we were moving, i found an old school book of mine from 7th grade elementary: there was a kid with a wrench repairing a bicycle on the front cover. I remember thinking: thats not really a thing anymore.

>They just wanted their stuff to work.

That's the normal attitude people have to almost everything.

I'm sure you can name something you only care to see work and not know how it works; electronics is that to that other person.

It's also why software have (d)evolved to remove customization, because most people don't change the defaults anyway (they don't even know what a "default" is besides the financial term, maybe).
