      ab: The author analyzes the claim of author James Stieb that the concept of responsible computing means holding computer professionals responsible for undisclosed list of undesirable events. He points outs that the interpretation of Stieb is profitable because it is dedicated to financial success. The author explains why the impossible ideals of Stieb are important to the human nature and to the nature of good computing. He contends that the role of engineers in an organization depends on the group's set of values, practices, and influences.
