> Maybe there's a reason it takes 4 years of extremely tough classes to understand the basics of "hard" math.

On top of that, any decent tech school also has an "ethics of engineering" course somewhere along the way, or at least I did about 20 years ago when I was a student (we had quite a stupid professor, but the intention was there).

I thought it was convenient how people's response to that class immediately showed me who shouldn't be allowed to run, start or control anything. "This class is bullshit and stupid" no, you are a selfish asshole who refuses to spend even half an hour a week understanding the history of the industry and the mistakes we made and how your work will have an impact on people so refuse to let that be a negative impact.
