Yeah. It's "engineering". Wikipedia's introductory paragraph to the subject includes the following sentence: > Engineering involves balancing competing demands such as safety, performance, aesthetics, cost, laws and regulations, and time, while operating within fundamental limits such as the laws of physics. (from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering) I realize the word is overloaded now and that people are confusing writing programs and other cerebral pursuits with engineering, but that doesn't change its original definition. | ||
