Pretty insulting.
I design program languages.
I can teach a 8 year old how to program,
the stuff I designed.
Computer science BS class of 90.
I remember the Dean of the dept deriding me,
“you are a scientist not an engineer”.
I made my living as an engineer, but I’m a Scientist
by formal education.
one of my degrees is computer science and i’ve made a living as a developer(and more) for 35+ years.
i’ve always felt good developers had to be part engineer, part scientist, and part artist.
