I spent two years of my life working on a technology I really hope is never used.

I think it's very hard to think about making a technology you know is to killing someone. But at the same time, you know it is necessary. You really wish the world you live in would mean there's no reason to. But that isn't the world you live in.

That does not appear to be related to this conversation. The OP does not have those worries and instead feels embarrassed when he/she must explain such.
