Spoken like a true software engineer ;)
- amelius 2y agoSoftware engineers have a lack of self-esteem when comparing to other STEM disciplines. The reason we see more fuck-ups in software than in other fields is not because software engineers are stupid, but because software is inherently difficult.
- nick__m 2y agoRockets and drugs discovery seems harder but failure is part of those discipline and they are managed accordingly. It's rarely the case in software.
- dotnet00 2y agoSoftware engineers are not stupid, but in other STEM disciplines they have a reputation of making themselves look stupid because of beliefs like "it's just newtonian physics".
