Nice rant.
It’s full of logical holes, of course, as there’s no common definition of tech roles and their titles, let alone a common understanding of the included tasks.
There are React Boot Camp folks who can whip up a frontend in no time who are arguably more competent at this task than a PhD in Comp Sci, and there are PhDs in Comp Sci who never wrote a lick of code in their life.
Technology in software IS Political, and 30 years of development experience shows me various parallel worlds that are arguably better than our current one.
Someone who grew up coding and loves hacking as close to the bare metal as possible is worth more than a dozen of your certified software engineers.
Let me know when the world standardizes on a Comp “Sci” curriculum.
Actual computational science has very little to do with computers and software development, which is a thesis statement I will be happy to support if pressed. For now, I end my rant
