I inherited a stake in a pyridine derivatives chemical plant - while I do not know much about chemical feedstocks and the chemical supply chain, I am trying to help the current partner optimize their yields and reduce losses across multiple stages of reactions across the feedstock and reagents. It is quite similar to hardware design and electrical engineering than I thought.

I have also taken an interest in learning distributed paradigms like MPI and am using it on my own cluster of rPis

Sooo GATTACA?

UWaterloo has such precocious students
