      @attritionorg I don't know if I agree with that. I think IT as a whole suffers from problems that can be fixed with lots of effort.

      @michaeldinn you are right. and 'world hunger' can be fixed with "lots of effort".

      @attritionorg Perhaps I'm more optimistic than you. We do agree there are definite issues at least.

      @michaeldinn you are more optimistic than me, yes. you are also likely a lot more 'new' than me. #historyprevails

      @attritionorg I've been doing IT as a career since the early 90s, security less than that.

      @michaeldinn a) blind b) mis-representing your experience as 90% do c) overly-optimistic (e.g. apply to be a Disney princess)

      @attritionorg I'm not overly optimistic at all. It's a near impossible battle. but it can be won.

      @michaeldinn 20+ years in IT, you say "it can be won". please... outline your hypothetical plan for how that works.

      @attritionorg It took years, and a whole discipline called Engineering with a standards body. IT needs the same sort of thing.

      @michaeldinn serious percentage of Denver bridges are on the edge of being declared 'unusable'. #Engineering

          @attritionorg That's not a bad thing. that proves the system works. We have lots of older bridges here too that need help.

          @michaeldinn wrong. those bridges were supposed to last a lot longer, per original specs. #engineeringfail #mypoint

          @attritionorg Then we need to find out why they aren't lasting longer, and fix it for next time. The past is full of mistakes.
