Engineering will soon be ‘more parenting than programming’
-
"...I think the majority of engineering will not be done in a way where people understand the products of the creation. It'll be more like an act of parenting than programming. It might take 10 to 15 years before that sentiment is widespread."
But you'll still have to change the diapers
And now my eyes won't roll back to normal

And parenting will become more like programming ;P

Very few parents understand tolerance stackups. :rolleyes: (And, given the companies I've worked for, few of them are willing to invest in the capital required to create such systems. Largely thanks to investors. :rolleyes:)

The next silver bullet that will become a buzzword, get on everybody's nerves for a while and then (ironically) go the way of the dinosaurs. Ironically, because it's essentially an evolutionary algorithm with the fitness function partially replaced by human interaction. The downside is, that the evolution of something not trivial may take a few generations with many candidates. That means the whole process may take some time, as a non-trivial test of each candidate and the also non-trivial fitness function will limit the number of candidates per second severely and manual 'parenting' will only slow down the process.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a fucking golf cart.

I was starting to feel that way but only because I am now in the pool of Sr. Engineers vs. Jr./Green
Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet. The interesting thing about software is it can not reproduce, until it can.

Yet more words from someone collecting a paycheck for doing, well, nothing except saying weird stuff. Not altogether different from what Kent writes WITHOUT a PhD.... :)
