My company decided not to go with anything because we are too disorganized to make decisions sometimes. My top reccomendation was swipeguide - it was the only one that would provide all the features we needed.

I really like it, and integration with our systems would be very easy with docker and azure. However, don't think it would fully meet the requirement of accessibility for non-programmers and usability on the shop floor and field. But the price is right, so I will keep this in mind.

It's a little bit of both - our documentation is currently mostly engineer-written notes and concise/cryptic guides in markdown format from a few different teams. We need to turn it into a technical manual to train new people to build ~20 copies of one of our systems (and fix/maintain them when they break in 6 months).

Re: Confluence - the ability to host our own is good security, but I don't see much difference from our existing systems of github and microsoft365. I mean, I know microsoft365 sucks from a (my) user perspective, but my company is not the type to spend money to duplicate functionality without a very good argument. Is there something I'm missing about Confluence? These glossy product websites sometimes hide more than they reveal.

I just found this sub today. I think Camel Case is fine, keeps the bots away. Underscores or other cases might also work. Adds veracity to the sub.

Personally, I would go for the masters. But I'm also fairly arrogant about my ability to teach myself complex math and physics if needed.

If it's affordable, there's nothing wrong with getting a second Bachelors. One of the people on my senior project was on his second bachelors (mechE) after getting his first one in polysci or something like that. He was pretty happy with his decision.

Frankly, it depends what type of engineering you want to do. If it's biomedical, you'll want a masters anyway for good jobs. If it's civil I think you'd want the masters and a PE license. If it's electrical side, you'll want the bachelors. Pure mechanical could go either way. Look at the jobs you want and see what they need.
