Meta comment, but I like how this 3 year old post somehow ended up in Hot.
29It's like those ancient 10 second YouTube videos.
11It's a known issue: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3428
10Yes, this seems to be super common here in Lemmy...
6Yeah, this is the third or so post that's super old and suddenly resurfaced… kind of funny haha, but I don't find it bad.
5Kind magical in its own way. Reminds me of the old internet days where you'd bump into a site from 1990 or someplace entirely by chance.
Maybe using <marquee> or <blink>.
4Same for me. Still getting used to Lemmy and it’s quirks.

Progaming
15Actually it's Programing, although that's not really much better.

That brings the question to mind, what's the difference between coding, computer programming or programming and software engineering? Is there actually a difference at all?
11coding, computer programming or programming [...]
I think these are pretty much the same thing: producing code based on a predefined/predetermined spec or design.
and software engineering?
This, I think, includes the design of the (architecture) of a system as a whole.
14Coding and programming is about writing the code. You get on a computer and type away.
Writing code is just one part of a bigger whole. It takes more than writing code to make software. Someone needs to think about the architecture, infrastructure, planning, management, maintenance, deployment, r&d... That's software engineering. It's a much broader concept than just editing text files.
2The aspect of software engineering makes sense per your definition. That brings the question of who a software developer is but... Coding and computer programming are entirely different though interrelated. One is an integral part of the other with the other being the bigger picture

I prefer the term Software Engineererer, myself
5Software engineering is not only the programming part, though.
2Not about preference. More of terminologies and their right appropriation
