Comparison of Engineering Practices in the Private and Public Sectors

There is more to Prompt Engineering than meets the eye. This is a good survey paper that outlines all the different types of prompt engineering (link in alt) https://lnkd.in/eg5gD4e7

In foundation engineering, there are two main modes of failure that the engineer needs to design against with safety and economy in mind:

Consistency matters in all we do when it comes to Engineering field.

Just finished Practical Engineering! This is a very good course I really enjoyed it. Check it out: https://lnkd.in/di9VgACV #engineering

Here’s an enhanced version with more insights: 🚨 The Branding Challenge in Engineering 🚨 In this video, we explore one of the most pressing issues facing the engineering profession today: our branding. Engineering stands at the forefront of innovation, problem-solving, and technical achievement, yet we often face a disconnect between the value we provide and the recognition we receive. 💼 The Problem: Despite being the backbone of critical industries—from infrastructure and manufacturing to technology and environmental sustainability—engineers are frequently underpaid and pushed to meet challenging deadlines that strain work-life balance. The profession’s contributions are often taken for granted, and this lack of visibility impacts not only our compensation but also our influence within the industries we support. 👷 Why It Matters: When engineers are undervalued, it affects the entire ecosystem. Talented individuals might hesitate to enter or remain in the field, and innovation can stagnate as a result. In an era when we need engineers more than ever to tackle global challenges, we must address this branding issue to attract, retain, and empower top talent. 🌍 The Solution: Changing this starts with us. We need to come together across specialties—structural, civil, mechanical, and beyond—to advocate for our profession and highlight the impact we have on society. By showcasing the complexity and value of our work, we can help reshape public perception and inspire future generations. Let’s take a stand for engineering and re-establish it as the noble, respected profession it truly is. 💪 Join the conversation, and let’s build a future where engineers are seen, valued, and supported. This version emphasizes the broader societal impact of the issue and calls for collective action to bring positive change. https://lnkd.in/eD3HtKWr
