I think the main difference is that he subsectioned computer science while I separated things out of computer science.

As the computer related fields become more mature, they will diversify and create room for more fields as well as more degrees in each field (Ph.D. vs. M.S.). This degree diversification is what my <a href="http://openradix.org/archives/233" title="M.S. in C.S." rel="nofollow">last post</a> was about. I totally agree.

Remember, Purdue was the first university to offer a degree in Computer Science, and until then, I *believe* everyone that wrote code was a Computer Engineer. When Purdue founded Computer Science, they saw a distinction between writing the hardware that the process runs on, and writing the actual process. And back then, there was not need to distinguish who was writing the algorithms vs who was writing the tools vs who was implementing them, because they were all the same people. Today, these three things are mostly done by separate individuals, and there is starting to become a definitive line between what can be taught. I feel that the Software Engineering field and CIT fields are really going to start to flourish within the next 5 to 10 years as they become more mature degrees.
