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 For me, getting a degree in CS, then having programming be my full-time job made "programmer" a reasonable moniker.
I do have an issue with calling myself a singer. I've been an amateur choral singer for 20 years. I've sung with the Columbus Indiana Philharmonic Chorus and with Maui Choral Arts. But "singer" is not comfortable.
