If "software engineering" were held to any of the same kind of rigor and responsibility that applies to mechanical, civil, aerospace or nearly any other "Engineering" discipline, we might not be in the technological & sociopolitical hellscape we are in right now.

Truly horrifying to see a drone drifting towards you (and others) while you're furiously tapping to close warnings.
