> I think you and OP are in agreement despite the opposing tones. I agree, but I think his tone is the more important thing to discuss here. Everyone is agreement that the "just go to college" idea is long dead (even though I'm sure this thread is gonna rehash it just for the kicks), but this attitude of feeling all morally superior to people who made well-intentioned shitty decisions? It's annoying as hell, and completely unnecessary. It does nothing but make all the programmers in a room feel all warm and giddy for their "wise, career decision" (aka lucky guess that aligned with my skills and interests at 17). It's just so lame, unproductive, and plain mean. What's the point?
