Iβm a masterβs candidate in the life sciences and public health. I canβt code or anything, but I regularly troubleshoot my own computer problems, and Iβve built a couple PCs for gaming. The most technical my field gets in this sense is the use of R or SPSS for statistical analysis.

I work as a city planner. I have an interest in tech and use some programs for work like Adobe suites, sketchup, minor GIS. Currently trying to motivate myself to learn GIS better but it's hard to sit down and start.
Non-tech! I'm a buyer for a large wholesaler and distributor.
I started going to school for programming in my younger years, but life happened and now I'm a diesel technician (and aircraft mechanic in the US Army national guard)
I work in healthcare but have always been interested in tech, but not professionally.
Civil Engineering, do a lot of things to keep me interested from design, construction, pm and administrative stuff depending on the phase of the project. And yeah, there is a lot of IT/Programming Guys in Reddit and Lemmy now.
Research CRO Analyst.
Sort of non-tech. Working as an RF Engineer with my Physics degree
I ain't educated in any field, but ive been fucking with mostly old tech since I was like 9 im now 23.
Beyond that ive got nothing.
I am civil servent and from non technical background
I would certainly characterize myself as a tech-enthusiast rather than from a technical background. I have a Chemistry degree and work in a tangentially related field (Brewing industry) though mainly on the sales/retail side rather than production. I don't code but it's certainly something I am interested in. I've set up a Pi-hole on my home network and have a small Plex-Server streaming downloaded media (as I try in vain to disentangle myself from the myriad of streaming services that exist).
Not technically in tech, I'm an oceanographer but work with numerical modeling so ehhhhh
I'm a chemical plant operator working for one of the big companies in Germany
Work for a class 1 railroad. Iβm about as tech savvy as your grandma.
Nice, I work for a train manufacturer in a test lab.
