I hate that they took away my analyst title. I'm not a software engineer dammit. I don't even have an IDE installed and haven't done any programming in 10+ years.

My designers are still systems analysis. The odd (scaled) agile jobs (PO, SM, RTE) are the difficult ones to explain to people outside the industry.

And Computer Engineering is none of these.

I am an engineer. Most developers aren't though, unfortunately.

My dad had the rare chance to name his position whatever he wanted, but the higher ups still rejected his choice of Grand Poobah.

Coder isn't a professional title. Software engineer and engineer are very broad of a term, because they can cover alot of work that's not directly coding software. Not all programmers write software code, some just 'program' software that's already written.

So i think developer is the best term for someone that 'develops' and write software code for a living. Or even software developer, those terms are interchangable.

If you call them engineers I'm going to engineer your femur into two pieces.

Not only does this meme ignore the fact there's only 4 choices in Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, it doesn't even do an even number of them leaving it annoyingly lopsided

Should have gone with something like “HaxorMaster1447”
