This post proves exactly why people are recommending not going to College. If you want to be an academic researcher, go to college for CS. It really does work well. If you want to program, start programming on projects you are interested in and build your resume.
- flacon 16y agoCollege will teach you lots of useful stuff outside of programming etc. I use my Berkeley education everyday via critical thinking, researching competitors/markets etc, presenting confidently, writing, argumentation and slicing through rhetoric etc. It would be naive to think that you can run a startup successfully by simply banging on a keyboard.
