Line up all the (ir)responsible programmers against a wall? Computer
programming is the only discipline I've seen where no formal
qualifications are required; any idiot can call themselves a "programmer"
if they've barely learned how to write in BASIC...
Yes, I have a BSc majoring in Computer Science and Mathematics (both pure
and applied), so I guess I'm a bit elitist :-)
