Programmers: Stop Calling Yourselves Engineers 11 years ago
Ok, so i just read this incendiary article titled Programmers: stop calling yourselves engineers. First, it was terribly written and researched and i can only imagine the author had very little respect for his fellow man. Second, Let me clarify that the word engineer is more a verb than a noun. It describes an action, not a person. We engineer a solution to a problem. We are all engineers in our own right. We solve problems that are important to us. This is the one downside to the freedom of expression the internet provides.
