A PE means that shit you do actually matters. 99.9999999% of Software Devs could take a lesson from it.

- renewiltord 3y agoI am glad that software engineers don't have a certification. Man, could you imagine the struggle? You report a bug and it's closed as "Not reported by a PE". You build a better product, but you can't sell it because you're not a PE. You find a horrible security flaw in software but they prevent you from telling the news because you're not a PE. God bless freedom and the First Amendment. And God bless software for being a field so concordant with America's principles.
