Comment on Ask HN: How can I think more like an engineer?

Comments

Think about the pros/cons and their costs and impact is 99% of the engineering work.

It is also why the overwhelming majority of software is terrible and IT departments are plagued by inefficient low performing teams: there's no engineering nor real thinking. It's a gaussian distribution of people with different coding and problem solving capabilities, but little engineering ones.
