When I saw that title, I was torn between "because you're an idiot" and "because you know what you really want". I'm old enough to know that everybody has an opinion, but I can't help but thinking that studying full-time for 8 months for a job interview is wrong. 8 months is a very long time, and I can easily think a dozen professional contexts where such a time could be put to much better use. It is sad.
- yeukhon 10y agoPut the possible self-promotion, what not aside, I'd be happy to study for a few months without worrying about working full time if I have revenue generating on the side. This is like attednding hacker school for 3 months and my sole goal would be to learn to make something I never had a chance to do it. This is like preparing for marathon for 12 months every weekend. I am happy to do this just to make myself more knowledgeable with computer science. I graduated with a degree and I am sorry to say I haven't really make use of my knowledge greatly because there isn't much to use algorithms or data structure in my position (I work as a DevOps) to the extend of building something truly amazing.
