Engineering is about the weight of responsibility you have from the thing that you build. Being knowledgeable and accomplished is a way to reduce that weight because you are confident that you did the correct thing.

After getting a tiny amount of traffic from HN, its now crashed. Beautifully poetic.
I think theres still a lot of room for traditional engineering - methods that have been robust enough to stand the test of time are enduring because they work! Hype will always hype, but when its delivery time and the system is stress tested, we will see what happens...

Should be good to go. Got a huge spike of traffic from China (according to Cloudflare) when this hit the front page. Odd…

I think you are mixing "engineering" with responsibility. You could literally take away "engineering" and put in any other word and it wouldn't mean much at all except just saying 'be responsible'.
Yes having more knowledge and accomplishment (experience) in anything in life lets you develop more confidence.
Ethicality is different from responsibility though, I think you conflated the two.

#7Being the most effective slave means you’re still a slave. If you’re trading your time for a corporation you’d be smart to give the least amount of effort for the most amount of return. Sounds bad, but corporations are not your friend and will discard you as such.

Seconded. What a moron. Also, neoengineer... it's just an engineer. And probably a pretentious one.

Howdy!
Sorry, I had an issue with the site being down earlier, so I threw up Cloudflare's bot detector. I'm sorry if that caused you trouble.
As for the back button hijacking, it is definitely unintentional, and I'll see if I can replicate that problem and fix it as soon as possible.
