  • You're right, we should let people who know HTML print out their own degrees equivalent to a 6 year discipline with specific application of math and science. /sarcasm

    It matters.

  • you just said ... on lemmy.

  • yes

  • What is it that you think I said it was? Because I pretty clearly outlined how memorizing syntax, calling functions, and gradeschool algebra are not engineering.

  • Not all software engineers are engineers and furthermore software isn't an engineering discipline to begin with.

  • Depends on the task, somewhere between next to none and actual engineering.

  • I'm not on Lemmy. Lemmy is maintained by people who deny trans rights and fight for Russia.

  • Pretty "hail corporate" response. I admit the first time I saw the word being on a Google jib listing over a decade ago might be part of my strong opposition.

  • I can respect that but you need to propose a new term for structural and electrical engineers to replace it if that's where we draw the line.

  • TBH it's not easy to get 98 people to engage with a bottom of the list comment so clearly some part of it is botted, which tracks because I'm pissing off sloppers and slopper admins every time I visit this instance.

  • Alright but it feels like you didn't really touch on my personal requirements and just appealed to authority.

  • I accept your resignation.

  • idk about grue but imo that depends on the requirements of the title. If you need to be a real engineer capable of doing real engineering work to claim it then by all means.

    If you need less than 14 math credits and only general ed science requirements, then no.

  • Lmao ok pal

    That explains why all the programmers carry around hammers. You know. To help them type in the word CMake.

  • Engineers are rarely menial labourers so idk what you mean by programming being virtual. Like 98% of engineering work is planning diagrams.

    My argument has always been that the work is different between a syntax ape and an engineer.

  • It's possible to learn how to do some limited engineering while working towards a comp sci degree but it doesn't magically turn every task you perform into engineering. Programming isn't engineering.
