The goal of an engineer is to create a product that is absolutely the best implementation for a given situation. The entire creative act is contained within the product. It has no chance to grow, to be more to the user than it already is.<\/p>\n
Designing widgets that are strong and appropriate is necessary and noble; but I have no interest in it.
