Building technical systems involves a lot of hard work and specialized knowledge: languages and protocols, coding and debugging, testing and refactoring.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Software development is technical activity conducted by human beings.
Tech, in the sense of... putting things together, that goes back beyond memory for me.
Tech is all about building human connections.
I could never understand how to build a computer, but the best I could hope for is to understand the people that do.
I would be better at my job if I were technical.
First you learn the value of abstraction, then you learn the cost of abstraction, then you're ready to engineer.
Be able to read blueprints, diagrams, floorplans, and other diagrams used in the construction process.
Hard systems are everything we're using right now - computers, phones, planes, the clothes you're wearing, the room you're in. Everything there involves 100% use of technology and expertise to make it, and nothing we make - including space exploration vehicles and so on - is complex. Everything we make is complicated. Nothing is self-renewing.
A technical solution may be defined as one that requires a change only in the techniques of the natural sciences, demanding little or nothing in the way of change in human values or ideas of morality.
The way to build a complex system that works is to build it from very simple systems that work.
