TL;DR: Talks about the engineering conference from NATO. The outcomes from that. He talks about how there's a defined model vs empirical model and that engineering is the empirical one. Math and precise (defined) models are used to not waste money at the expense of issues, bugs, and disasters. In engineering, the architect is the mind, which is cheap, and the labor is expensive. In software the architect is the one who writes the code, which is expensive, the labor is the language/compilers/platform that is cheap. It's quite the opposite. The principles of XP, Agile, etc. has been known since many years ago. He goes on to provide examples. Really insightful talk, worth the watch.
