Re:Why are so many successful founding CEOs software engineers? by bluefirebrand on Monday March 15, 2021 @12:27PM (#26468025)
I admit I don't know much about it, because I'm not one.

I'm a bit baffled on the fact that they can stamp things they aren't formally trained in. That's a surprise.

I had assumed they had some baseline level of training in different areas because a Software Engineer I know stamped an architecture drawing for a shed he was building. Granted a shed isn't a high risk building but still it's surprising he can do that if he's untrained.

Also does the ring really have nothing to do with it? My understanding is you earn the ring at the same time as the ability to call yourself a professional engineer. Maybe the ring itself isn't necessary but it's symbolically related for sure. Am I wrong?
