It was more disappointing (and surprising) when I found that even most of Manhattan isn't like Times Square.
Did engineers exist before accreditation existed? Was the word "engineer" ever used before the ABET existed?

Going by the title "software engineer" feels a little gross, but at the same time, I fail to see the difference between designing a system to reliably move data around with a high uptime and, say, designing a system that can be placed physically in a bedroom window and cool your room for less than $150.

Being the person who fixes AC units doesn't make you an engineer, and neither does debugging someone's lovely code, but it's not the case that the entirety of your work as a "software engineer" consists of debugging someone's lovely code.
