STEM dorks, gather around and give me some interesting topics to learn
I’m a mechanical engineer. well, by education anyways, and I’m unemployed at the moment. I’ve literally zero specialty and I pretty much don’t know shit and while I’ve got time to endlessly masturbate in my parent’s house and read, I might as well get some inspiration on what fields I should pursue.
Right now I’m reading this Molten Salt and Thorium reactor textbook

Biological wastewater treatment is interesting, and not just cause I went to school for it. I remember reading and doing a report on this peer reviewed paper on methods of abbaitor waste treatment. Fascinating stuff.
Oh lord, civil engineering was what Inwanted to study insteadnof mechanical and biological wastewater treatment was exactly why. Thank you for reminding me.
Any good textbooks/resources?
Honestly, consult your city/state website. They tend to have snacky reads for people studying for their licenses (at least in Wisconsin). Otherwise a used book on introductory wastewater studies is more than sufficient. I know that sounds lazy, but I haven't found a bad book on the subject. Even some of the old and outdated ones are still reliable on most metrics.
Could you give me a quick link, for one of the state Wisconsin for example? Just so I know what I’m looking for.
Sorry for making you do this work, I’m really interested
No worries, I was kinda lazy myself. https://dnr.wisconsin.gov/topic/opcert/muniWaterworks.html But I'm also not kidding when I say the reading materials really skew excellent. I can't help but think it's that it's hard to politicize in a way that skews away from cleaning up human waste. Every other waste is a different story.
Thanks! Super helpful
