What's your definition of a "senior" developer?
-
I think my definition of a senior dev is vastly different than others. I am not so sure that a 10 year member working as a senior developer would be asking us to do his homework assignments for him.... So, what would your definition of a senior developer be?

A senior developer is one who, when he needs to search the web, automatically starts to type altavista.com
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

I believe that 62 is when one starts reaping the benefits afforded a senior.

I told my psychiatrist that I was hearing voices in my head. He said you don't have a psychiatrist!Sorry, we are getting age creep and now someone must be at least 67.

A ploy by HR. When there's a senior there are also mediors and juniors, people you can pay less. Ultimately, it's just a stupid label people get when they're old, have worked in the industry for a while or have worked for the company for a while. You'd expect them to have deep knowledge of software and/or hardware engineering, but judging from the "seniors" I know it isn't really a prerequisite :sigh:

Most people don't take their education as seriously as others. Welcome to life. :sigh:

Search the web? We know how to read a manual. Heck in most cases we wrote the bally thing!

At the very least, a minimum of seven [paid] years in a single discipline.

Watched? The kiddies watched. We'd read the comics. We sneered at the kiddies who watched.

But they couldn't get it down to 32x32, so they were doomed.
