Engineers need to understand that those requirements don’t apply to every project.

How does an engineer know that he is involved in a bozo-driven PoC or in a technical deathtrap that will end up as the core business of the company?

  • Again, by communicating. If someone doesn't know what they are building, who they are building it for, and why -- then they do not have a solid grasp of the requirements.

    • Never saw a subcontracting requirement document, stating "the solution is for a bozo-project. so don't spend ages making it robust for the future"

  • Oh, that's easy. Can you point any real person waiting to use the thing?

    In fact, that's probably the easiest question to answer on this entire discussion.
