This. Some people need a book and a bunch of sanctimonious hypocrites to tell them to be a good person.

Assuming you’re talking VFR?

You make a good point about people who are informed or educated enough to actually recognize that. Ignoring the future vs present worth of money aspect.

There are a shit ton of folks out there who don’t know what inflation actually is. I’d say they probably fall into the doom spending category.

The rest of the world has left their obsolete ideologies behind and they hate the world for it.

Can you get a PE license in software engineering? Serious question

Edit: PE = professional engineer.

In most parts of the United States the title “engineer” or “professional engineer” is a title with legal requirements & responsibilities in the same way calling yourself a medical doctor or lawyer would be. Folks with the credentials to be a professional engineer are tested & licensed by the state to practice engineering, similar to the way the bar or medical board would vet lawyers & doctors.

The dude certifying the structural plans for the bridge you drive over every day is in this category. Same with other categories of critical engineering from the fields of chemical, electrical, mechanical, civil, environmental, etc.

That said, TIL software “engineers” aren’t part of this group. Maybe they should be
