What kind of cs degree did you get where you learned about electrical circuits. The closest to hardware I’ve learned is logic circuit diagrams and verilog.
Ok, but he didn’t know what a transistor is. Like I get not knowing the mechanics or chemistry of it, but to literally not know it or how it applies to a computer boggles my mind.
Well, computer science is not the science of computers, is it? It’s about using computers (in the sense of programming them), not about making computers. Making computers is electrical engineering.
We all know how great we IT people are at naming things ;)
Maybe for dev knowledge, but computer science? The science of computers?

I don’t have a degree
If you want someone to know about the physical properties of transistors, find an electrical engineer.

Informatics is a much better name imo
