I grew up on a family potato farm in SE Idaho and I have a PhD in Engineering from Stanford (also known as The Farm). Additionally, in Colorado and elsewhere, there is a shortage of students entering STEM – Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. So I feel I have pretty good mix of horse sense and formal education.

Nothing essential that I disagree with you in your post, but when read by other people with minimal software engineering experience, they can have too high expectations. Would love to hear your insights sometime into how to partner with engineers. Dont go C or Java, python is good for prototyping and easier to learn.
