Old, but fun read that argues that today’s programmers are not like typical Engineers and shouldn’t really call themselves that as Engineering requires certification, is subject to government regulation, bear a burden to the public, etc.

You’d think that’s how it is but in reality they list software developer roles as software engineer just because they think it sounds better.
Yeah, fair enough that might be what HR/recruitment does. It doesn’t mean that there isn’t a difference though.
Also I’m not sure if that is more of a US thing maybe? I see most roles in Australia listed for “developer” not “engineers”
