Philosophy

Andy Weir's The Egg reframes engineering ethics: every shortcut, every design choice, eventually lands on a human. Build as if that human were you.

Nietzsche's amor fati means loving what happens. In engineering, that translates to postmortems without shame — and systems that learn from every incident.

Pascal warned that we flee stillness by staying busy. In engineering, the flight often looks like optimizing — and it's worth learning to notice.
