- username90 7y agoSorry, I didn't realize that HN was full of people for which this thread was insightful. We really need to separate software engineers from software engineers. The side which mostly works on algorithms will find this thread mostly stupid or ignorant. The side which focuses on gluing together things will find it at the edge of their understanding and therefore both novel but understandable. Also just proves that we need algorithm interviews to separate the two. Note that I am not saying that gluing together things is easier or less important, just that it is another job so requires other skills and therefore it doesn't make sense to give them the same title.
