There's a passage in the article that I either misunderstood, or the author is somewhat being agressive/hostile towards computer scientists and engineers:

> Its users are scientists and engineers; not computer scientists and software engineers, but the real ones.

Software engineers are in fact "real" engineers. Who do you think writes the compilers for Fortran.

Edit: Read the article twice. The author is Ukranian. Either it's a linguistic mistake, or he really has some sort of prejudice against Software Engineers, in which case I find that sad.
