A video from a while ago - it made me consider something. If we were to create an "architect's oath", one that every architect takes before being allowed to build; that would it be? what kinds of statements would it consist of?
So then I went ahead and asked google uncle. Apparently, people have thought of this before (I couldn't really be the only one thinking about this, could I?) I found a few online - some serious, some parodies here, here and here. This is a debatable point - can an "oath" really control what we build? what exactly should the oath be about? and how specific or vague can it be? are we even entitled to an oath?
As I ponder on this idea, would love to know what others think.
