> So much of the engineering mindset jumps to solutions instead of clarifying problems. I'm guilty of this constantly. This is because it's easier to rely on knowledge, but it takes extra work to develop understanding. It's also a culture issue. A close friend of mine works for a web dev agency. Numerous times she's told me how they're discouraged from asking questions. They're told they are experts and experts have _all_ the answers. Nearly as often I hear stories about something going sideways because knowledge isn't enough, they're short on the necessary understanding. Despite the pattern, the leadership doesn't change the culture.
