To each their own I guess, but it's hard to imagine NASA going to the moon being led by a marketer or business analyst.
Hard things are hard. And hard things done right take time and precision.
- pas 3y agothere's no need to do them right. and most no-code platform already constrain the solution space brutally anyway, and that's good enough in most of the cases.
- nouveaux 3y agoNasa's biggest challenge is marketing. Their funding is dependant on public perception. Nasa does not get more money by having better engineering. Nasa gets more money when congress thinks it will get them more votes with their constituents.

- nouveaux 3y agoMy point isn't that Nasa should prioritize hiring good marketing over good engineering. Nasa has good engineers. My point is that their biggest challenge now is their public perception. The general public does not care about Nasa's mission. SpaceX is far more popular than Nasa. If you stop to think about it, SpaceX is just making travel cheaper and it shouldn't be that interesting. If Nasa can make their mission more fun and interesting, they have a better shot at a larger budget.
