Question: at what point do folks consider themselves programmers? Or scientists?
I've written programs, but don't feel I've earned the title "programmer". I've used the scientific method to identify and resolve issues, but "scientist"? Not I. At what point do folks feel comfortable identifying themselves that way? Just wondering if anyone else is pondering what I'm pondering.

@dumdumjobes I considered myself a programmer (actually software engineer) when I found my self writing code in my head as a solution to problems. Sort of like when you can "speak another language" when you think in that language. BTY I think in C. If you want to explain an algorithm to me just show me the C code and I get it.
