indeed. I have oft-wondered what is the difference between the highly respected Engineer and his lowly, unstructured counterpart, the developer. Facebook appears to be a developer company, while (stating the obvious) Google is an Engineer co. The two can coexist, but not peacefully.
- jey 19y agoBah, that's a totally artificial distinction. I think that the difference between Google and Facebook has more to do with the company culture and the people at the top of the company than the programmers themselves. "Engineer" is what a suit calls you, "Developer" or "Programmer" is what you call yourself, and "Hacker" is what other people call you.
