Full Title

The people in the computer field want to be considered professionals, but they haven't taken the steps necessary to earn that.

Context

  • Ever since the Code of Hammurabi professionals have been held accountable for their actions. When ever a licensed medical care provider or professional engineer sings in an official capacity, they add their professional designation, (e.g. MD or PE) to their signature to indicate their professional capacity and to accept accountability for their actions.
  • While computer programmers like to consider their professional status, they neither sign their work product nor take any accountability for the correct operation of their work product.
  • The common behavior of programmers is to create terms of use as a Contract of Adhesion specifically to exclude any liability including "fitness for use".

Problems
