Why, so the software engineer can be a scapegoat if something goes wrong? Certify the software, not the person.

- JohnJamesRambo 8y agoStand up for your code and certify it like a mechanical or civil engineer certifies what they make or don’t wear the title of engineer. It’s time to take on all the qualities of the sobriquet not just the status and the salary that was appropriated.
- dnautics 8y agoExactly. It's just a title. I'm perfectly happy being a professional programmer with no certification. Tinder and even most parts of Google don't really need "engineers". Boeing, not so much.
- bdavis__ 8y agotoday, the plan is 'certify the process', not the product. people are assumed to be faulty.
