So I was driving along and someone was hitchhiking.
I picked them up, and they thanked me and asked me how I could tell they weren't a serial killer.
I said "what are the odds two serial killers would be in a car at the same time?"

Hit the "Red flag" in the top right of their home page (click on their username, it'll take you there) and select the appropriate option: "spam" or "abuse".
Then report them here: Spam and Abuse Watch Discussion Boards[^] explaining why they deserve to be a member no longer.
The community will decide their fate.

Why are all my new messages being flagged as potential spam? What did I do?
|
|
|
|

This site sometimes gets deluged with spam, so some posts first have to go through a moderator. You haven't done anything wrong, but this can happen until you have a certain number of reputation points, particularly if your post contains a link to some other site.
|
|
|
|
|
No links or anything. It also seems that my reputation points and rank have disappeared. I'm guessing that Chris has let the hamsters alone or C

has a software problem, too bad .

While your account is quite old, the number of messages you've posted is small. Once a few more of your posts have been accepted through the spam filter it will stop being so concerned about you.

To further what Sean said, sometimes an older/inactive account suddenly starts posting a bunch of stuff and it looks like it may have been hacked.

I am a registered Professional Engineer qualified as a Petroleum Engineer, but under the rules, I'm not supposed to add Software Engiineering to my qualifications, unless I pass a test orget a registered Software Engineer to vouch for me.
The tests is no longer offered, sothe reference is the only available option now.
Is anyone here a registered Software Engineer ?
Regards,
Walt

I never knew someone needed to be "registered" to be a software engineer. Interesting.

It was/is an attempt to make the engineering discipline follow a trade-skill-like path to being an "official" engineer (4yr college -> 4yr or more apprenticeship -> testing -> periodic re-certification). For software at least I lob into into the Mensa pile - useless except for your ego. So to directly respond to your statement: we don't.

In many US states you cannot have “engineer” in your job title unless you are a registered, Professional Engineer. If you are in engineering role but are not a PE yet, then you add EIT to the role.
Same is true for Architect. You cannot have that in your job title without the state certification.

which states? NY is not one of them. Neither is Florida, California, Pennsylvania, New Jersey. You know how I know? Those are the states that we have devs in working remote. All of us have official company titles of Software Engineer or Senior Software Engineer.
Been doing this a very long time, and I have never, ever heard of this, not once.
So, please educate me.

First hit on Google from Massachusetts.
Massachusetts state law prohibits an individual who is not licensed as a professional engineer in the Commonwealth from using a job title which implies to the public that the individual is capable of performing engineering services. See M.G. L. c. 112, §§ 81D, 81T.
Maybe I am more sensitive to this because I was an independent consultant for 30 years. I never would have billed time to “software engineering” or “systems architecture.”
A company that bills the time of a person with a title of “software engineer” to a customer and includes that info in the billing could find themselves in legal hot water if an engagement ends on a sour note.
A hit on CA limits restrictions to use of specific titles like “consulting engineer”, and others that you would expect like “professional engineer”, “electrical engineer “, etc.
It is HR’s and legal departments job to know these rules, not the developers.

We have software engineers in Boston, Mass, and they never "registered" for the title.
if there is a law, it is not enforced, at all where I have worked, and others I know have worked. I have never heard of this ever.
