Seems like you guys are idealizing engineering. There was some point to the ex-googler post, even though he exagerated it.

The idea that an engineer gets a specification document and then go into a introvert mathtrip while furiously producing artifacts.

That approach might work for research, but not for production. Modern engineering isn't a bunch of galileos creating airplanes.

Ableism now? Where does that come in to what you said before? Can you state very clearly where you think we differ?

Threshold of "social skills" : on one side, introverts need to deal with it. On the other, engineers aren't supposed to be HR geniuses.

I really don't know what you're talking about or how it relates to what is being said. Where do you think we differ.
