Just a point of triviality, I personally don’t like to be saddled with the term “coder”. Of course, I cut my teeth in the days when that was slang for “key punch operator”.
You are older than I. And I am old. We used to call ourselves programmers. Then it became developers. I have lots of kids who are coders. Some are real CS degreed programmers. And some are faking it hackers with engineering or math degrees. Lots of people write lines of code in some high level language without knowing a stitch about computer science or even logic. I tell all my kids to learn SQL and some sort of Java or C language. They have, but as soon as they get good they become managers.
