Forget about 10x engineers, we need more 10y engineers!

Good engineers ask why before they start building something. The best engineers ask more of them.

That's just my humble opinion on the subject.

First sentence sounds like a joke, but actually you've got a point. A good one. In the last months I wished some of my co-workers had asked 'why?' more often. Wouldn't have lead to days of work wasted.
