Software engineering is rapidly becoming a net negative for us all.
That's because most "software engineers" aren't actually engineers. They're more systems designers and analysts with a bit of programming knowledge and a little bit of a computer science background. Being a real engineer is very different.
Pretty sure you could word things similarly for every field that's around. I've yet to find a proper explanation for "software development is not engineering"
engineering is when you are tangentially related to someone wearing a hard hat
Don't forget the sweaty muscular men!
