I was actually one of the people who did design the computer you are using to slur me.

See my reply to the above comment.

(Simple advice: type a person’s name into Google before making comments. Hint: I’ve spent a fair amount of time “out of the classroom with actual engineers”, including myself.)

I actually never said this. Not did I say the original quote “An engineer is someone who can make for a dime what any fool can make for a dollar”, which goes back in the early 20th century or earlier.

My friend Chuck Thacker — the main designer of the computers at Xerox Parc — has been heard to utter a version of this quote.
