I realize you are joking, but this is why I was in frantic mode in my early years. I do not have a degree in CS, so I had no idea what I was missing. Consequently I read up on everything. I still have a bookshelf filled with books on algorithms, "gotchas", Gang of Four wisdom, database design, you name it. I was forced to learn coding on the side and still have the habit today. I always have a side project going (which has fueled my career, but has also unfortunately cost me my marriage). I now have a son going through the proper steps of receiving a degree, and I have book to supplement him for every class (except for the higher math).
