>I wonder how do you ride your plane then?
When I was in physics undergrad, I remember talking to engineering students taking statics. In general physics, we were allowed to make simple numerical errors, the emphasis then was on figuring out the solution and understanding the physics. My friends on the other hand complained how they, after acing gen. physics, would get mercilessly docked off points for minor arithmetic errors and calculation errors in statics.
They'd complain to the professor and he'd reply, "that mistake you made means your bridge will collapse! It doesn't matter if it's minor!" The point is to become an certified engineer, there is a certain level of rigor you need to have because of the gravity of what you deal with, and if that fails, engineers have been held legally liable.
The article said it itself, and I really couldn't believe how blantant it was:
>Most of the programmers who are getting into this space, myself included, come from a web development background, and the blockchain toolchain is designed to be familiar for web developers.[...]The problem is, blockchain programming is fundamentally different from web development.
My mouth was wide open reading this here, people who have the discipline of web developers are the ones developing Ethereum? And this is the promised land that one day will be the future and I'm supposed to believe it?
Sorry, for some aspects of life, brightness and having a great community are not enough, especially when you want to do something that you could lead to risk of loss of life or limb.
