What I like about embedded is that it's between software and hardware, where you have to know both to a certain extent. It kinda feels like being a mad scientist bringing a monster to life. Seeing that my code makes physical actions (lighting a LED or controlling a motor) never seems to get old, even when trivial.
I am confronted everyday about the things I don't know because I work in a startup and I am the only one that does what I do. Any issue that I have tells me what I need to learn to fix the issue.
You are right that for a lot of people, what I do seems like magic and we often forget the extent of our knowledge because it has become innate.
Thanks for the insight, I appreciate it.
