Let's be honest
a rant about computering
Computering isn't science!
It's engineering at best.
Computering is solving problems using computing and automation.
Computering is the business of efficiency.
95% of work in computering is done to make an already existing process cheaper and more efficient.
Computering is about reducing work labour.
Even your very own work labour!
we are the chinaman stealing the jobs.
Computering is people business!
You are building stuff for people, used by people by working together with people on problems defined by people.
Work happens in teams.
Though we continue to present singular on stage, the stereotype of the lonely, super hacking nerd is busted.
The daily work is about communication.
Research Technologies
you will
by reading blogs, research papers, documentation, watch videos, conference talks, gettings started guides
Discuss Proposals
by writing specs, presenting demos, discussing features and tools with others over chat, at meetings and conferences
Coordinate.
we spend more time talking about what to do than actually doing it. And that is needed.
even more fascinating to think about considering how bad we are supposadly at it in the industry.
The diversity problems are men made!
Like literal men.
You are sitting here because you are privileged!
and pampered.
We are all full of shit!
