(Also is it just me or is "coder" possibly the worst word for "software engineer"?)
@Gargron I like the word 'coder' - it is simple.
Simplicity is something that many so-called 'software engineers' has forgotten! :)
Pierre Terdiman - author of OPCODE and Novodex/PhysX - refers to himself as a 'real, true, pure coder' - and that's one of the reasons why I think it's really cool!
Software engineering, yes: that's a thing (apparently) - but take away the layers of fluff, and in the end, we are coders!
I am proud to be a coder.
