Under every single CAD application that businesses use is a thirty year old CAD kernel. Even OnShape and Shapr3d, “modern” tools use Parasolid a 30 year old beast. We, on the other hand, are building a new CAD kernel. To use GPUs not just for rendering but for the math. Yes,…

Unpopular opinion: Any engineer afraid AI will take their job must have been pretty "meh" in the first place, since any good engineer knows the job is to automate yourself out of a job and move on to automating yourself out of the next job, over & over again til the end of time.

I'm curious if any college CS courses require running services (outside messing around in a lab) nowadays? Debugging intuition comes from experience & is built up from years & years of seeing systems fail in different ways. Big O isn't going to save you when prod is down.

I feel like 99% of being a software engineer is debugging random shit, 1% algorithms. As you gain experience you see more random shit, your random shit toolbox is ever expanding until you can figure out anything w time since it’s semi like something else in your toolbox.

💯 speaking from my own experience I write the best code when I go super heads down, shut out the rest of the world for possibly days, forget to shower/food, and just pound it out… all from home, that legit does not work from an office.

The best engineers I’ve ever worked with create art with code. They can abstract complex code into simplistic frameworks allowing anyone to read and understand and contribute more on top. AI will replace the mediocre engineers but it will never replace the artists.
