In this scenario science is less effective and costs more. That duct tape will keep those forks there until the end of time, no maintenance.

Those pictures are horrible representations of science and engineering

Without scince there is no engineering.

I never understood this. Design, approval, fabrication, installation, O&Ms, As-Builts, etc..... all part of engineering in my world.

The difference between science and engineering is possibility and feasibility.

I don't think you know what science means.

Why did you crop out architecture?

First, science to figure out how the thing works. Then, if that turns out to be impractical, make it practical, by force if necessary.

Project Management to all: Client asked us if you could make it with 2 lines that are parallel to each other and intersect.

That's just a hack job! A real engineer would design and machine a modular fork retention system out of a solid block of titanium

And his machinist would hate him for choosing titanium

Engineering has to safe guard against users. Science doesn't

Engineering is the profession where the lazier you are, the better you'll be at figure out the fastest and easiest way to get it done

I think you have grossly underestimated my laziness.

As an engineer, yes. +1

Necessity is the mother of invention, but laziness is definitely the father.

Then I guess I'm becoming an engineer

Laziness breeds efficiency... or is it the other way around? I don't know.

I like to think of it as efficacy rather than laziness haha

According to my dad, "an engineer is someone who does for 100,000 what any idiot could do for 1,000,000"

As an engineer, I'd never bothered to figure this out for myself

I should've been an engineer. I constantly get compliments at work for this..

As an engineer turned scientist, laziness will serve you well in science too.

As an engineer, this is 100% correct. Have my upvote!

As a failed engineer, there is such a thing as too lazy

Don't work when you can build/program something else to do it for you.

Work smart, and hard

It's the same for IT

Not really, you may find out the fastest way to do it once, but often doing the hard work means saving time later (tools/automation etc)

Depends, I build / design really complex infrastructures, the clients usually want to try to save money though.

False. My lazy coworkers are just lazy, and the lazy way is usually half assed

10 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

In my experience there's two kinds of lazy in IT. The ingenious, find the most efficient way to solve a problem type, and the normal kind.

"We're having DNS issues." "eh, just add this into the hosts file." Laziness can be dangerous.
