…and i¦ve been amazed at how people will, with no fear of repercussions, just out and say the most batshit things (from a technical perspective) and sign it with their full name and employer and forward it to the whole mailing list.

Probably the single greatest argument in favour of software work being any form of “engineering” is that you can’t just say blatantly wrong, infeasible, or uninformed shit in a professional capacity these days and have it be treated as mere “academic disagreement”.

On the one hand, i wonder if the internet making the whole of our professional lives, for those of us that work in the open, searchable and accessible hasn¦t magnified the reputational penalties of being wrong and stifled learning, growth, and innovation.

On the other hand, i want some·one technically‐minded to go thru the professional output of todays “tech greats” and see what batshit things THEY have said above a signature of their full name and institution. For certain figures i wish the reputational penalties were greater.

they’ve added “orthographic at sign” using capital and small circled A because Unicode remains a coward and won’t encode it
