You should Google around and see what Dijkstra said about "software engineers" (hint: he put it in scare-quotes, too).

It's also odd that you don't think that programmers need to know big-O notation or n log n sorting algorithms (!) but still have kind words for Dijkstra. Another hint: the kindness would not be mutual.

If you don't know why you're doing what you're doing, you're just an Eclipse macro that happens to breathe. Educate yourself.
