Full-stack engineering sounds like a dream. In fact it’s a recipe for slower development, lower-quality software, soaring technical debt, and overstressed engineers. Jack of all trades, master of none

This guy acts like a human can only do one thing ever 
And being full stack has nothing to do with multi-tasking, you can first write an API and then create a UI, maybe even days apart.
I can be a back-end coder and play the piano, why couldn't I be a back-end coder and know some HTML and CSS and maybe even some JavaScript too?

So a single engineer can build the mechanical part of a 3-phase motor with specified torque, speed, noise and power requirement, then design the electrical circuit keeping heat, EM emissions and fire safety into account, then unbundle the electrical circuit to be printed on a PCB, write the control algorithm on a microcontroller and then the CAN / LIN communciation layer with the standard diagnostic.

I don't even know what you're talking about, but maybe.
This guy says "engineering", but is talking about software development.
Really the only "full-stack" I've heard of is that of a front-end/back-end developer, and that's what this guy is talking about too.
And yeah, it's perfectly viable to know both (and even database design too, as he also mentions).

First-ever net-energy gain from fusion raises hopes for zero-carbon alternative. We’ve got the power!
Well, more than they put in, anyway. So, maybe fusion is now only 30-50 years in the future, instead of 50-100.

Fusion power has been 20-30 years in the future for the past 70 years.

Quote: Siemens worked with the Advanced Robotics for Manufacturing Institute in Pittsburgh, created in 2017 and funded by the Department of Defense to help old-line manufacturers find ways to use the new technology.
IOW, they worked with the ARMI, created and funded by the Department of Defense. Makes sense; wouldn't robotic soldiers need robotic uniforms?

How much does it really cost to buy more powerful cloud compute resources for development work? A lot less than you think. Another one to leave where your purchasing manager will find it
Counterpoint: xkcd: Compiling[^]

Slow build times are excruciating 5% of the time, and a godsend. I managed to read a metric ton of books claiming (verifiable) long compile times.
In a company I worked for I altered the build script to run for 10 times with a pause between compilations so I could take one hour off while technically I was compiling.
Yes I have a statue of Wally in my living room, how did you know?

Have you tried claiming IP rights on "quiet quitting"?

I mastered quiet quitting in my first company, who paid a unskilled labourer wage to software engineers they trained and employed for 7 years.
I also learnt by a previous master, a former coworker of my mother, who worked for the government. Every day he spent several hours cleaning his workstation, to the point he disassembled his keyboard and cleaned every single key before reassembling it. Every. Single. Day.
Guess what I did when manglement imposed to the workforce to keep desks absolutely clean? Let it never be said that I forgot my masters.

When I read "I altered the build script" I was hoping for some genius tip on improving the build time.

|
|
|

That's exactly what I did!

He did. The build time was improved in the way he wanted it improved.

Not only for compiling...
My work laptop has been so bloated with things running in the background by the IT department that it takes around 5 minutes just to get ready to work after loging in.
You can still fire things, but some (or many) of them will wait to pop up or start executing.
But hey... they know it better.

We have the same IT team.
80% of company works remotely connecting to remote VMs.
Default answer of IT team to any type of slowness is: "It's the connection on your side."
Even though it is quite easy to prove the VM running the person's desktop is running on h/w which is overwhelmed.
Ce la vie.

In my case, my answer would be...
"You are almost right. The VPN connection speed on our side sucks and is a damned bottelneck"
