Why I Build in Bits and Atoms
Studying aerospace engineering trains your brain to think about the physical constraints of reality: gravity, mass, friction, and fluid dynamics. In contrast, software engineering feels like pure, unconstrained creation.
The Contrast
In computer science, you write logic and compile it. If it fails, you change a line and recompile in milliseconds. In aerospace, if a wing structure fails structural load testing, you have lost months of fabrication work.
The Synergy
By combining physical intuition (atoms) with computational power (bits), we can solve problems much faster. Aerodynamic solvers, quant models, and physical simulation engines represent this perfect intersection.
