    To be fair, if you have an engineering degree that covered programming you probably learned C, ASM, and low level details about system architecture. But the definition of “engineer” seems a little looser when you’re taking about IT compared to some other fields - SWE is the only “engineering” title you can get without a formal education, AFAIK.

      EECS, you gotta know all the way down to electron flow!

      I love to gift TIS-100 to anyone who tells me they want to be a programmer. So far it’s been a great measure of success, if they actually play and complete it (observed via steam achievements)
