What do you mean by "other" professional degrees? There's no "professional degree" to become a programmer and I'd like to keep it that way.

- toomuchtodo 9y agoComment you replied to isn't inferring a degree is required, they're inferring programmers should organize through collective actions (represented by a industry labor group) to have more leverage against corporations they work for.
- majewsky 9y agoI bet there was a time when doctors/engineers/lawyers/etc. said the same.
- arjie 9y agoYeah, and look at the nonsense they do: http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/health/2005-03-02-doctor-shortage_x.htm http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/health/2005-03-02-doctor... The AMA tries to restrict the number of doctors in the US and creates crises instead of letting people study to become doctors. Because they're incompetent at the goal of keeping the public healthy, and exceptionally competent at keeping doctor salaries high, you get something indistinguishable from regulatory capture. No, thank you.
- SomeStupidPoint 9y agoReally, what I meant was other "professional" or "white-collar" fields. I'm sorry if that was unclear, it was early.
- s73ver_ 9y agoThere's no "professional degree" to become an actor/actress or a director. Yet, they're still covered by a union.
