>They are not software engineers and it shows massively.

Coming from Real Engineering and making 2x more programming, I lol at people who say there is any Engineering in software.

We are programmers dealing with layers upon layers of abstraction. Knowing to optimize for time by using vectors is more of an art, than a science.

I did do safety critical C code and Assembly which are probably my hole in the whole 'its not engineering'. But javascript/python/backend work: programming.
