They are quite different... ask these two gentlemen.

Though the engineering one is starting to develop a cranky

There's nothing wrong with getting cranky over engineering
carelessness and incompetence. But if you ask me you would
do well to lower the political mud-throwing. It certainly
pushes me away from threads you're involved in. Anyway,
it seems we can all learn something valuable from Amdahl.

Dr. Amdahl is quite the example.
