That’s missing the point. Engineers perform at a specific level. You don’t expect civil engineers to build the bridge. Can they do it? Sure. But that’s not the profession. Same with Structural Engineers, Chemical Engineers, Industrial Engineers, etc. They are at a higher level in the planification and execution process and will likely have signatory responsibilities on the project. If the bridge falls, the engineer does have explaining to do.
The equivalent for a software engineer would be (in the US) more at the level of architect with responsibilities higher than developers.
But engineers is not a protected term so everyone is an engineer now.
They’re regulating engineering of software and electronics.
From Engineers Canada;
In the case of software engineering, a piece of software (or a software-intensive system) can therefore be considered an engineering work if both of the following conditions are true:
• The development of the software required “the application of a systematic, disciplined, quantifiable approach to the development, operation, and maintenance of software.”
• There is a reasonable expectation that failure or inappropriate functioning of the system would result in harm to life, health, property, economic interests, the public welfare, or the natural environment.
That does seem to me well defined. If you disagree then it’s okay.
Edit: taken from this: https://engineerscanada.ca/sites/default/files/public-policy/professional-practice-software-engineering-en.pdf which also add context.
I cannot speak about electronics as my education was in software engineering.
Software development is done by developers. If you are a software engineer chances are you’re working on software infrastructure that actually apply at scales that are not “add a shopping cart to this blog”.
There are reasons you ask a civil engineer for work.
It’s a good thing that Engineer is a protected profession and not everyone can claim it, like Lawyer or Doctor.
In the US now it’s “oh you’re an engineer? Do you have any idea how little that narrows it down?”
Yep the ASCII table just goes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, …

Companies were doing that with NFTs (which is what you’re describing) but now nobody want to touch an NFT so those companies definitely went bust.
The best case will be companies who can hide the crypto behind the product, like “give us 5$ and we’ll give you 5 read-a-tokens which is totally not crypto btw”. Or wait a couple of years for crypto to come back in vogue.
I think you can charge per article on substack. Not entirely sure though.
Some newspaper charge X$ for Y articles, I think the NYTimes do it or used to. It’s usually a horrible deal compared to monthly subscription, but I think that’s the point.

You have to prove your net worth. Sugar daddy/baby are prohibited.
There is a dating website for millionaires. I wonder how their revenue stream works but they advertise that they don’t accept men under a certain net worth. I guess a high barrier of entry could work for that market.
“YouTube Money”. Get it right.
I’ve known quite a few people that were paid under the market value because they liked their job and tasks. I’ve took a salary hit once at the start of my career because I hated my job too much and wanted the job I was interviewing for. Didn’t regret it too. Though two years after I accepted a job at FAANG.
Didn’t they fire like half their QA staff a couple years ago?
Honestly just ActivityPub. And being backed by the W3C id assume there already are discussions in countries where corruption is less prevalent.
Public spaces should be government owned. Each country could have its own public servers with a guaranteed spot for every citizen. People can cross post.
If you want anonymity you can have private servers too.
Just make sure you add DKIM and all that. Mail in a box will do it mostly for you and it should take care of the spam issues at least until someone reports your emails as spam. For a personal email that shouldn’t happen.
Basically sending emails without DKIM is like serving a webpage on HTTP; nobody should trust the page you got was not altered and the domain is properly registered.
