Actually, I get what you mean now. You mean, because of the scene now, you can appreciate this things more, because you have been able to get into it in general more easily now.
Not k because of AI, the bees waddle around. But you appreciate their waddling more now that you see what people understood from it, adapted from it?
And before getting into coding, you did think of the connections here.
I think Software Development has always been the most open of fields. All open source code was available (through which you use your models now), hundreds of free courses and books on everything (also now for the models).
But yeah, now there is a cheat code to move past the frustrating parts, but I dunno if one can become a good engineer without toiling through those parts. Maybe... But can one become a good leader, without suffering through trial and error and total loss of hope at some point?
Also maybe software development is a bit different from other engineering fields. Half of what people mean by software dev is not engineering/science really, more like plumbing/lego building.
Also, it's kinda funny, you "harbour a deep love" for it now, but some years ago you ditched and dropped out of an engineering degree with celebration, lol.
Also, you have a lot of formal training in its basics, physics, chem, maths until A levels, even in Uni. Plus you were/are a gamer.
So you're not like a totally layperson coming into it, to be fair. You knew just enough that you can utilise the current tech now, which you could have done anyway if you spent a few hours reading a tutorial. You co-designed so many of Taleemabad's systems before the "new" era.
I'm sorry for this almost ranty message. I hate programming right now, still not slept. Basically, my point was, all the things you talk about have been around for a long time, and I don't see how"new" era has anything to do with it, or contributed anything to it. (so far)
Nice bit of re-inspiration on a day when I am sleep deprived and been struggling for some time to implement some synchronisation algorithms.
I disagree with the "this new and wonderful era of engineering" though. What's so wonderful about it?
I should have clarified -- wonderful for those who were locked out of it / didn't have formal training before...
