- albertgoeswoof 8y agoLiterally this article, and all the other comments and posts about how useless a computer science degree is for hiring, and how we should all go to boot camps. I actually have a comp sci degree (and learned a tonne) but I know former classmates who skipped through without learning to program properly at all.

- chaosite 8y agoThis is why scholarships exist and significant effort is being made at getting everyone a chance to attend university.
