In the mainframe days systems analysis, programing, and coding were all different jobs. Now-a-days I understand they are usually combined. Coding was the grunt work. Yes, the term tends to be used derogatorily these days, unless you are talking about microcoding. Everyone who has written workable machine code (not assember code) raise their hand.

Or could it be I just uncovered the conspiracy of sys admins against
