Hacker, engineer, ninja, rock star...these terms are bandied about in this community and I don't have a problem with it, it's just part of the lingo. Anyone stumbling on this community who may get confused with the term "engineer" (for example, in a HN job posting) would figure out pretty quickly that that they mean someone who makes websites. It's not like a company really wants a rock star or someone trained in martial arts, or someone with a P.E.
