Never. I am from Spain, probably the most envious country in the world. I never talked about money when I was starting my career(and earning way less than my peers, friends and family) and do not talk about it now that I make much more than

We use those tools for industrial prototyping because we can program those in things like python. We use it for creating as crappy designs as fast as possible, not getting designers to premature optimization. For serious design no, we use e
