uisGamedev and linux
m_r_buttsI wonder what percentage of the Linux users making these reports are already professional IT people in some capacity. I'm not convinced that it's "the open source way" causing this to happen, but instead suspect it's "the experienced engineer way".
Can you get a PE in software engineering? Serious question
A computer engineer is something else entirely. Basically, they often work with electrical engineers to write low level drivers or something, and rarely do much in user space. Software engineers are the opposite.

No. That’s an exam for computer hardware engineering, not software.
There used to be a software engineering PE exam, but it was discontinued in 2018 due to lack of interest.
(I regret not taking it when I had the chance.)
