@mholzschlag I've held a "software engineer" title for about 6 years now. Not exactly the same... but is there something I should know? :/

@JosephLabrecque There's ALWAYS something we should know ;-) I was just musing on the term "engineer" when we stick "web" in front of it.

@Timocracy Hey now. I apply it when approaching dev problems. Maybe they don't know about it where you work? Zing! Zap! Pow! OWIE! :P
@Timocracy Responding to that would be happily jumping into a pit of poisonous vipers. Or quicksand. Or a heart to heart talk in a war room.
@Timocracy Now THERE'S the infamous logic I know so well. Ah, youth!
@Timocracy I'd be grumpy too. I feel you, my white first world brother! Ha!

@mholzschlag ahem, by what I witness, we have self-proclaimed web engineers. You know, it's the trendy job title of the moment

.@mholzschlag There's a lot more. We shouldn't use the term. theatlantic.com/technology/a… (saying this as a studied engineer, but still ...)
