Also, usually I hear this line of reasoning from people in other engineering fields who, in my opinion, are just being babies about the fact that software is so accessible and there are brilliant people doing great work who nonetheless didn't go to university. It is really surprising to hear this come from someone who is actually a developer themselves.
- Analemma_ 10y agoI hear you. I was more just ranting and did not expect this to be the top comment; I need to be more careful about that. There are a changes in the industry I'd like to see and this seemed like a rhetorically punchy way to get that across, but I'm not really fundamentally opposed to the term "software engineer", I just wish we had the institutional rigor and care for the craft that I see (or at least, perceive) elsewhere.
