@davidbeers@dair-community.social @afeinman@wandering.shop @jk@mastodon.social Alas, many engineers do not consider this requirements-management to be a "real" part of engineering Conversely, I think that software without giving voice to the impact on the user is not engineering at all Yes, that means that some "UX" people and "product managers" might be the only ones on a large team ACTUALLY doing software engineering. Everybody else is either doing in vitro lab science or assembling IKEA furniture — both worthy tasks, but not engineering
