Reminds me of college: "Hardware and Software are logically equivalent"

  Writing hardware is like writing software except parallelism is way cheaper, but mistakes are way more expensive.

    that doesnt seem like a good tradeoff...

      Hardware takes 20 years to learn how to build properly. Software takes 1 year under someone smart in a production environment. People that conflate the two... longer or more likely never.. =3

        > Software takes 1 year under someone smart in a production environment. That's very funny.

          Be honest, most Software people find utility in artifacts which are a mysterious black box with an emulated abstraction. During a career role most have no idea "why" chips were designed and built a certain way, nor require this information to work within abstract domains. In many ways, vibe-coders are the absurd optimization of a naive trajectory toward zero workmanship standards. =3 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_stages_of_grief https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_stages_of_grief
