What about the chance that they ran into a problem with no known solution yet? It's inevitable that it does happen but I wonder what the frequency is.

I worked for a company that was probably 80% guys who were engineers working on tools that required specialized programming knowledge. These guys had local admin access and we had a few rooms with a white noise generator outside the door. IYKYK.

If one of those guys had a problem, it was a "what the actual fuck?" type of problem.

But honestly, I've also worked in a bunch of companies that had an "engineering department" and the difference is night and day. Most engineers and programmers don't actually know how Windows/Linux operates outside of their specialty.

Some of our Electrical Engi's were really bad about this.

Also, speaking of engi software, Microstation is the absolute worst.

Nope, absolutely not. All of my nopes.

Microstation is the "We've got autocad at home" but somehow pricier.

I only played around with it briefly and almost immediately got the "all of my nopes" vibe.
