I know actual bugs get in machines and cause problems, but yeah I wonder how often circuits get damaged from sweat dripping on them. I'm picturing huge old computers, and people lying on top of them doing maintenance/etc, yeah I wonder how many circuits get fried that way from sweat ??
I bet there's a lot of horrible jobs sites electrical tech's work on, like in the bowels of ships, or factories, , or like Lineworkers in a storm, or in the summer heat with all that gear on, etc.
Besides doing some household wiring in the city, when I think of electronics, EE, it's always from the comfort of my home.
