I think it's relative to the number of years one has been practicing the craft, typically at least 7 years imho. It implies that one has enough knowledge to solve problems at most levels without handholding which apparently is not always true.

Unfortunately, there is so much hand holding going on it almost looks like one of the old "I'd like to teach the world to sing" Coke commercials.
I find it somewhat ironic that people lose their jobs to outsourcing only to end up teaching the people that got the outsourced jobs how to perform the jobs they lost.... for free.

As a senior developer you know when to use what and you know why something should be used. Domain knowledge helps but even if you don't have specific domain knowledge that you can acquire over the course of time. As a senior developer you know that you don't know everything and there are people better than you. You learn from your mistakes and you try to improve yourself. Keep on learning and improving your skill is very important in this industry. I have seen people with 15 years experience but you feel that they have done the same thing in all those 15 years. As technology progress new becomes old and old becomes legacy that no one should touch but as a senior developer you still poke around those legacy code. I have done few development work were all they had was a legacy code ( systems that are written in Basic and FoxPro ) and no documentation and my task was to uplift it in new technology looking at the code. You should not be afraid to understand how old technology works even though you will never write something in it. And I am still an Analyst Programmer. Should I consider myself senor developer ?

I've been a developer a long time (doesn't matter how many years). I'm a senior developer because now I can the senior price for the movie theatre, golf courses, state parks, etc.

My definition is one that can wipe his/her own @#$. lol. I've had that attached to my title since I was 21 years old and still have it some 20+ years later, it means nothing to me whether someone is senior, lev 1, 2 3, etc... or just a plain developer.

Um. Just how much is this "frozen yoghurt" wonder food?
Because if it's under $1000 it's not worth prostituting my dignity to get the discount, and if it's over $1 I'm not buying it.
I'm guessing they are on a loser with me...

I have a sense of humour - I think - just I don't find people making a complete tit of themselves to save 10c funny.
This also partially explains my abhorrence of karaoke.

APOD: 2016 September 19 - 50000 Kilometers over the Sun[^]
Notice that East and West are inversed. This is correct, The idea is that if you would be standing on the sun (looking at Earth) the East is as should be. So looking from Earth to the Sun, East is left, West is right.
This outburst of plasma, called a prominence is about 50-75 thousand km tall. Eart's diameter is about 12500 km. (mean radius: 6371 km). Earth's diameter fits 100 times in the Sun's diameter, making the Sun 1 000 000 times bigger in volume.
Makes you think at how tiny we are in the cosmos as the Sun is not a particular large body in the universe.
And here we are fighting over I don't know what...
