Re:Programmers should stop calling themselves engineers (2015) by tluyben2 on Sunday May 26, 2019 @04:34AM (#20013819)
It definitely shows: in my uni I had a professor (pupil of Dijkstra) who we thought was very elitist (not so weird considering his pedigree) ; he said the world will be a bad place if we continue the bad software practices and was all for allowing (!) non engineers to make games and ‘fun things’ but not anything that actually does anything that could lose money or health if done badly. I have not spoken with him for a while but he must be crying every night about the JS uprising.

20+ years further, I am starting to agree with many of his points.
