Honestly when I see what my friends who design airplanes and particle accelerators are doing, I feel like we're all kind of fucking around in software engineering, frontend or not.
- EpicEng 10y agoI agree, most are.
- nickpsecurity 10y agoTry looking into or messing with actual engineering of software instead. You'll get similarly amazing things. Here's a few: http://www.anthonyhall.org/c_by_c_secure_system.pdf http://www.anthonyhall.org/c_by_c_secure_system.pdf http://www.methode-b.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/dl/thierry_lecomte/Formal_methods_in_safety_critical_railway_systems.pdf http://www.methode-b.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/dl/thier... https://ts.data61.csiro.au/publications/nictaabstracts/7371.pdf https://ts.data61.csiro.au/publications/nictaabstracts/7371.... http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-192/paper08.pdf http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-192/paper08.pdf
- kybernetyk 10y agoHeh, true. Compared to real engineers and scientists we're just a bunch of monkeys re-inventign the wheel every 10 years (with each iteration being worse than the prior one). But from time to time one of us monkeys gets lucky and changes the world. So I guess it's a risk/reward thing :)
