@davidpgil Well, if you are looking to start from zero knowledge (Ohm's law, Kirchoff's laws) to the point where you can create PCBs (being able to deal with amplifiers, digital logic circuits, oscillators, feedback systems, frequency-domain analysis) — then I would suggest you to try learning it the hard way. Get the famous book named "Engineering Circuit Analysis" by Hayt, Kemmerly and Durbin (you can get it as PDF too); take a pen and a notebook, and study from it. Trust me, you will fall in love with the subject, and you won't find it hard. The only prerequisite is the knowledge of some high-school calculus.
@davidpgil What do you exactly mean by "online college"?
If I recall correctly, I have seen some courses on electrical engineering on Coursera.
Scientists discover new virus with genes that do not match any recorded in the past: Report

The virus is named after Yara or Iara, a water-queen figure in #Brazilianmythology that is usually depicted as a water nymph.
According to a report by sciencealert, the virus is called the #Yaravirus and was recovered from Lake #Pampulha, an artificial lake in the Brazilian city of Belo Horizonte.

This solar telescope just released its first close-up video of the Sun — and it’s stunning

The telescope also gathers a total of 13 kilowatts of solar energy during observations, generating vast amounts of heat. This heat is dispersed through seven miles of piping, cooled by ice which forms overnight on top of the massive mountain.
