    I'm sympathetic to the title inflation issue but more on the problem of the "engineer" title, not to mention the "scientist" title. For example, I work in Data & AI and we have: - …

    True but if you're referring to the fact that you can play Xbox and Xbox 360 games on newer hardware, I believe Microsoft has a team that has to individually patch these games to w…
