Well, I think that typically 90% of engineering is bullshit, that 90% of everything is almost always bullshit, and that 90% of the high minded nonsense you're talking about can be tossed with no loss whatsoever.

The other 10% of the design world? Actual useful, and can help create truly better things. And typically offered honestly because there really is something of substance being shared. To be clear: there can be tremendous value in the design world.

And nice false dichotomy there - if someone disagrees with the snooty extravagances of the design world, then they only care about science and engineering. That is not what I said, and your twisting of my statements is either a shallow read or disingenuous.

I can only read as deep as what is written. I have a low opinion of anyone who dismisses “snooty extravagances” of any field – it’s incurious and disrespectful. Either admit you don’t know enough to engage, or read up and engage on the substance.
