@wycats >_< I always have beef with that "junior" classification. We got into a debate the other day about what classifies people as junior.

@wycats I can believe that. I always get classified as Junior by others but I don't feel like a Junior engineer. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -

@typeoneerror@wycats Probably an HR requirement so they cna know the pay ranges or whatever. -
@kwuchu@typeoneerror but experience in art, math, teaching, etc. are all hugely useful in your job as a developer! -
@wycats this fine arts grad would tend to agree. my skill-set is weird and wacky compared to CS students. good for business. - End of conversation

@wycats The career switchers I know are the most amazing engineers -- largely *because* of those physics and art (and...) experiences. - End of conversation

@wycats as a developer who has about 5 years of coding experience (and a theoretical physics degree) I can now see just how junior I was. -
@KevinAttfield But there may be people with 10 years experience who are 'junior' in math. ;) -
@wycats agree very much. I just think that orthogonal experiences exist. Someone can be a valuable teammate who writes terrible code. -
@KevinAttfield@wycats if that's the case, why not move them to a non-contributing role? -
