They Call Occupations "Professions" Because the "Pro" Means Something
If you elect a leader, you vote for somebody with leadership credentials, not a famous Hollywood star like Reagan or Schwarzenegger
When looking for a programmer, you examine past work, not one's "prompting foo" (LLMs)
When you build a home, you consult a construction company, not some lad down the local pub
If you want a photographer at a wedding, you prioritise experience and proven portfolio, not any random Joe with an iPhone will do
If you want medical advice, you speak to a practitioner who attended medical school and practiced the profession for years, not a chatbot that is overly confident by its design
If you want security advice, you speak to a Computer Science, not a non-practising geneticist
If you want to find tech news online, look for sites that are truly independent, not marketing people who pretend to be "journalists" (and hug this job description to compensate for what they're not) █
