    Remember this, aspiring engineers:
    If you can make a thing that’s pretty neat in ideal conditions when everything works as it should, you can stop there. It is not your responsibilty to handle what can happen in irregular circumstances or to handle potential failures. Assume everything will always be alright, and if not, it’ll be someone else’s problem.
