Is it bad?  Should we have &quot;real&quot; engineers working on software that a bootcamper could do?  It seems like a waste of resources.  Some problems only need a solution that your nephew can hack together in a week.<p>That said, the problem is that many people looking to get software built can&#x27;t properly identify what should actually be engineered.  In the physical world it&#x27;s a bit more obvious.
