Software engineering, no. Programming, yes.

  A distinction without a difference. In a profession with no agreed upon standards for anything, everyone can call themselves an “engineer,” rendering the title meaningless.

    You are correct, but the distinction will become obvious soon enough.

      People either solve problems and add value as employees (or contractors), or they don’t. What they call themselves has no relevance. The exclusive focus on “stacks” and the tools and lore and make-work of programming has left a lot of people unable to contribute much value.
