I have definitely come around to the idea that most programming is art, not science. Not to say there is no such thing as computer science as applies to programming, because there is. Algorithmic research, language research, etc, all of these can fall under the domain of 'engineering', even given the description of this blog post.
But if you are using those things, then you do so as a tool, using tools is not necessarily the domain of engineering, but it is often in the domain of art.
I would very much like if my job title read "Code Artist."
