by first learning practical electronics.
you have to know how to make it before you can break it or repair it.
jk, but dammit, man, sometimes I wish that I had learned practical electronics in my school and college days.
in fact, iirc, there was a book by that exact name, practical electronics, by an author named bernard grob. it was in our school library.
I just googled. the book is still around.

but it's very expensive for India these days.
also it my day had good Synergy with software development
Wow. I had said "it might have had" into my mic, but Google voice typing changed it to:
>it my day had
that's speech recognition for you. some of the mistakes it makes are even funnier, particularly when a non English speaker is speaking into the mic, like me.
for example it automatically changed the "some of the" to samudra, which is Hindi and Sanskrit for sea or ocean. I've seen many more such errors in that category.
but I have to say that there are huge amounts of improvement in the quality of the recognition over the last some years, since I first started using a phone which had that feature.
