Often a tactic used by Team Avolition during their Minecraft Griefing videos. Rather that simply destroying a building they tear the entire structure down, put down dirt & plant saplings so that the moderators and admins cannot roll back the damage.
“No don’t leave the house, that’s a bad idea. What you do is a little social engineering instead and tear the house to the ground, put dirt & plant saplings so that they can’t tell where it was and they can’t use Big Brother to roll back the damage because it won’t be able to tell what was built and what was naturally there.” -Storm_Surge

Get the CBT Engineer mug.A person, often who does not hold an engineering degree or does, but has no actual experience with real engineering and ended up in a different technical field. This person can often be found on facebook or other social media platforms criticizing engineers for apparent problems with consumer or other products that they believe could be better. This person is quick to point out obvious faults because they believe engineering is simply envisioning a perfect product, and that makes it happen. They have no understanding/experience with the cost, management, cross-functional team collaboration, qualification requirements, documentation requirements, problems of similar parts, legal regulations, interchangeability with other parts or assemblies, material properties and compatibility, corrosion resistance, lead times of parts and material, production costs, service restrictions and costs, low rate of failures pertaining to the one they unfortunately experienced, or many other constraints that limit the "perfect solution" that they envision.
Armchair engineer: "Its 2024, surely engineers could design a car that never rusts or corrodes, they just want you to pay for repairs and replacements to ensure they maintain profits". Engineer:" Sure, there are materials available to prevent corrosion for a longer time if you want to pay 6-8 figures for your vehicle that gets you A to B and costs 5-7 figures to repair and still requires yearly maintenance to avoid that condition. No rust or other corrosion on cars for the life of the car is a great idea though, not sure why us engineers didnt think of that, where did you get your armchair engineering degree? We should probably go back to your school."

Get the Armchair Engineer mug.1. I had to check if a number from 1 to 10 was odd or even so I made 10 if statements. That was some next level hood engineering!
2. I did some crazy hood cooking last night. I didn't have a rolling pin so I used a wine bottle instead

Get the hood engineering mug.When an Engineer is consumed with self-esteem and glory, that despite the downfalls of the supporting product, environment, or company, and subsequent technical debt they are surrounded with (and possibly creating), they assist on creating the "shinny" new thing, and taking all the glory for its bloated success.
James Bond loved being in the spotlight so much, that he sacrificed the integrity of his work and well being of his team, to speedily re-created the company website on his own without consulting his team members. The results worked well, for 1/2 of all customers, but hey! Its really shinny! His ego-engineering communications and broadcast got him promoted, though he continues to break and create technical debt for the Company.

Wow, you are so smart and good with language. You should be a linguistic engineer!
