Every day I go to work to help develop an engine that will power a product and every time I see someone using the eventual product I will flip them off. Only an asshole would buy the thing I'm making. I spent last year on a similar project. All the money is in the expensive bullshit. Pay is up an and down but the "cool jobs" are very hard to get regardless. That thing I worked on last year went on sale with defects which the customer hopes to fix with software updates and I have my doubts that that is realistic considering at some point they'll have to stop working on this and get busy cooking up the next disposable box of shit who's engineering integrity will be equally undiagnosable by the overly monied knuckleheads who are %99 of its demographic. Does it matter that something which is inherently worthless and stupid also doesn't work properly if the easily distracted airhead using it doesn't know either way? In court, sure, but ethically? I work in the auto industry, btw.

Last night that engine made 650 HP from 3L, sometimes its cool to do this stuff but rarely.

it's nice that it sometimes delivers anyway! I complain about the game industry but I don't think I'd do anything else... for the time being
