Define -- "Software Engineering"

Posted by Cliff on from the what-do-you-think-it-means dept.

2nesser asks: "How do you define the term 'Software Engineering'? Some see it as the implementation of the theoretical world of Computer Science, but isn't there more to it than that? Social responsibility, documentation, a program that works under precise, known conditions? Can you compare Software Engineering to other disciplines? What sets a 'Software Engineer' apart from the rest of the crowd?"

    Does no one understand the difference between "Flamebait" and "Troll"? They seem to understand the difference, because so far I've seen EVERY troll post modded "Flamebait" and EVERY flamebait modded "Troll"

    Fuck, you fucks are fuckers.
