i find those commercials really weird. "Digital and Industrial" i think speaks more to EEs (of which they have plenty) than to software developers, ML experts, and/or data scientists.

- cylinder 10y agoThose commercials have been weird from the start. They make the parents / relatives / friends seem dumb to the point of parody and the "developer" very condescending.
- ArkyBeagle 10y agoto my ear, D&I refers more to PLC guys, who are probably closer to being industrial engineers than either EEs or software guys. I've talked to PLC vendors before; they aren't familiar with what it would take to actually do ... more ambitious industrial control. Basic stuff like filters and modest machine learning is a bit beyond what they offer. It's ladder logic and cabling. PLC inventories are measured in decades, not years. It's honorable work, but it's not to be confused with software development.
