Engineering?

By what metric do we even call ourselves engineers any longer? What are we measuring against? what standard are we holding ourselves to?

The advice the poster is giving leads to stories like this: "I Accidentally Saved Half A Million Dollars" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38069710

If your goal is to have better engineering then then just tie all their work to the only metric that matters, the bottom line.
