I like the idea about "an engineer's mindset" and "an artist's mindset". I've never really thought about it that way before. you say/imply we can build things using one or the other, but when put like that, it seems obvious to me that they are not mutually exclusive but also not a a subset/superset of one another. they are entirely independent mindsets that can be used or not, together, individually, or neither.
I think a lot of what I do is both in the "engineer's mindset" and the "artist's mindset" at once. see the quoted post of the quoted post.

@sodiboo@gaysex.cloud Yeah I totally agree that they are different approaches but not mutually exclusive.
Like my dad builds houses, and he might use an "engineer's mindset" to design a wooden staircase, but then use an "artist's mindset" to design a decorative trellis arch even though he's using geometry for that.
In my own personal thoughts I think they are very similar and usually combined to accomplish tasks. Like when I'm 3D modeling a coffee shop I'm using both mindsets at the same time.
I saw your quote post, happy to help with your decent into sisyphean madness
