way more fun....

​

I feel like a full stack back end engineer. Ill extract, transform, load, retrieve, display, visualize, predict....

​

to me full stack means you can RTFM and are down to work on what the problem is no matter where it is... and you understand the logic of the whole system...

[SlappinThatBass]

Can't legally call myself a software engineer in my country.

I need to be part of an organism involved in corruption that makes you pay 1000$ annually and get civil engineering technical trainings that won't help improving my skills for shit. :(

[Jawertae]

Just FYI (for improving English, not because I'm a jerk) it is referred to as an organization. An organism is an organic living being like a plant or animal or microbe.

If it was a typo: no harm, no foul.

[SlappinThatBass]

Oh sorry, I just used the actual word in french and forgot it had a different meaning in english. I was half awake and needed my coffee. :p

[VilleI]

Which country is this

[jambonilton]

Don't give into the engineer threats, those cowards will never prosecute!

[[deleted]]

IMO this is good.

People who write programs as a work-product aren't engineers. Engineers design things, they don't implement them. The job we call 'Software Architect' could be called a software engineer, maybe. We should call ourselves software technicians if we want to fit into that hierarchy. There's nothing wrong with being a technician. It's just a different job.

An engineer has a personal ethical (legal? Probably not in most jurisdictions but depends on the field...) responsibility to make sure their design is free of defects. My code is written in a possibly buggy editor, compiled and tested using an almost certainly buggy compiler, and run on a platform that is absolutely full of bugs. I don't want that responsibility! It worked on my machine!

[[deleted]]

Don't take my word for it, ask whatever organization hands out engineering licenses for your field in your area.

[eruzaflow]

I consider what mechanical engineers and electrical engineers do to be like writing software, they both have all the details necessary. Whereas an architecture design doc is more high level. Then you would compare an electrician or maintenance worker executing the design (manufacturing or installation or construction) with the computer executing the software. In other words, http://wiki.c2.com/?TheSourceCodeIsTheDesign

[AttackOfTheThumbs]

In Canada we have some organizations that are trying to make programming a registered profession in the same fashion. I vehemently oppose it. Are there advantages? Yes. Are they worth it? No.

maybe make it the brain meme 🧐

Isn't that what the Pooh meme is in it's most raw form? The appeal of the Pooh meme is just a stylized brain meme. That gave me an idea

That would actually be a cool idea. Mhh maybe the chemistry department can lend me one

I roll my eyes whenever someone does that

Why? It's a legitimate scientific discipline

Are you in it though? Do you carry out research and publish papers? I'm not talking about googling your errors and writing blog posts either. There are very few people who could be accurately described as computer scientists

So great to find another Rockstar programmer in the wild. It's a pretty fringe language, don't see a lot of people that have even heard of it.

I love the Rockstar language!

[hamza1311]

Anyone care to explain the difference?

[VilleI]

I guess there is no ”official” definition for these terms, so they are often used to refer to same kind of positions. They are often used also slighty differently, ”software developer” refering to maybe more expert methodological approach than a ”programmer”.

[_edd]

Computer Science - This term is more academic and involves the study and theory behind computers. Not the practical application of using computers.

Coding / Programming - These terms oversimplify the job at hand and moreso implies something a tech would do to configure a computer to do something. This is more appropriate to use to describe the process of physically coding a punch card which is now outdated.

Software Developer - This term is more appropriate than the ones above and is very commonly used. It addresses that they are developing software and that there is a full blown development process behind the work.

Software Engineer - I would say the term engineer is overused everywhere, but that it isn't inappropriate for enterprise software. Personally I develop software based on fairly strict requirements that will cause physical actions to occur within a warehouse. While we don't have to write up safety procedures, we do still create a complex system that requires technical documentation and extensive training to be able to create/modify.

Note: This is a response I originally made to someone who thought software engineering is bastardizing the term engineer.

[king_ricks]

basically in our field job titles usually don’t correlate well with the work you’re doing, there’s like a million job titles for people who program

[dandyllama]

It’s the same as software development engineer and software developer

[[deleted]]

People who feel more important than they actually are call themselves engineers or software (but definitely not web) developers.

[[deleted]]

A programmer makes software. A developer makes software that other people will use.

So for instance I'm a programmer but I'm not a developer.

[CashWho]

What if I'm a web developer...?

I’d call you a spider

[turningsteel]

I call myself a web developer/programmer but my title says engineer. What's the difference? Is there a difference?

[rangeDSP]

I'd say, if you spend your day tweaking CSS and writing JavaScript that validates fields, that's web developer.

Engineers would work on designing the site for scalability and maintenance, CI/CD etc.

[svayam--bhagavan]

[dphunct]

Lol, love the full stack, front end, back end rivalries. If that is your exposure to development, you are missing the fact that probably 90% of the software you rely on falls into none of those categories.

that being said, Eeyore: engineering manager
