Stop calling non-engineers engineers.

@retoor someone that's a member of an accredited engineering organization is an engineer.

Like the CSPE for instance, or whatever other countries have

as a javascript engineer, I resent that

@retoor

be academically qualified
have obtained sufficient acceptable engineering work experience in area of qualification
be competent in the English Language
be of good character
demonstrate an understanding of professional practice and ethics issues

For the academically qualified bit, you'll need an undergraduate degree, but those are obtainable with work experience and an assessment I believe

@retoor That is the official measure, yes. There are various types of engineers, but they should have the degree stating so at the very least. Not to forget that that education comes with heavy mathematics and science the person went through to earn the title.

As someone who maintains and/or builds steam engines, fuck all you needs for appropriating my title!!

Seriously though, people being pretentious about titles is so gay

vibe engineers

@retoor this was a Canadian requirement for an English province.

Likely French in a French province, and either in New Brunswick.

Yes I am a developer
Software engineers don't exist
