Fortunately, you can hire newly minted software engineers and they require no supervision whatsoever to solve your difficult problems.

- AnimalMuppet 6y agoNice strawman. Oh, wait, no it isn't. It's a really cheap strawman. But in the end, it's just a strawman. But it is my position that a graduate of a proper software engineering degree would take less initial supervision than a graduate of a CS degree. Why? Because they would have already seen ambiguous requirements, and would have an idea of what to do. They would have already seen a multi-hundred-thousand-line code base, and would be more likely to have some idea how to navigate in one. They would have some idea of what production-level code looks like, and how to go about achieving that level of completeness. And so on.
