- uberc 13y agoYes. And even if we limit the scope to "hacker" (since the blog is called "Singularity Hacker"), the lack of any hardware skills on the list seems a rather glaring omission.
- jcfrei 13y agoI agree, this is a ridiculous overstatement of the importance of software engineering. A renaissance man equivalent of today would have to be proficient (at least) in physics, chemistry (and mathematics naturally), (electrical) engineering, programming and to some extent even law. I don't know anyone who would fulfill these requirements.
