The ones who talk the big game are the ones who tried it and failed because they are task oriented people who cannot focus on complex scenario’s. They need to be spoon fed. Can’t figure things out on their own. They think it is ok just to ask a question instead of mastering research skills. They can’t accept failure, if it doesn’t work the first time they give up.
I’ve seen so many it’s sickening.
I think that our profession requires a fairly rare combination of the (sometimes) wildly creative part of the brain (the part that conceives of the solution(s)) and the disciplined part of the brain that ensures that the implemented solution is robust, efficient, resistent to errors, and maintainable. Quite rare, and quite valuable.
bump for later.
