Working hard is not what engineers enjoy.
Engineers enjoy building architectures to minimize human effort while still producing maximal results. I try to solve problems as efficiently as possible to minimize the amount of work I have to do and minimize the amount of effort some future maintainer will have to do. This will allow a company to reach unlimited economies of scale as the limit of the amount of work required approaches zero.
- mettamage 6y ago> Working hard is not what engineers enjoy. There are different type of engineers. I think people will almost always miss the mark when they state "engineers enjoy xyz" even when it's something like "engineers enjoy problem solving". I actually enjoy fantasizing and being the idea guy, but I was too lazy to find a programmer so I taught it to myself instead. But I still enjoy being the idea guy much more than being a programmer. I like programming (and at times love to dive deep, deeper than a lot of web devs anyways), but I love being the idea guy.
