As a writer, what's really interesting about this post and the comments/ feedback it has gotten in the last few days is how much it resonates with engineers regardless of their discipline - from aerospace to software.

Particularly points 2 and 7 about not BSing engineers and giving them autonomy/ agency to create and self-direct. That last point, especially, is something employers would be well-served to pay attention to.

Thanks to OP bhaumik for posting the article to HN.
