I have been interviewing a ton lately for software developers and it invokes a visceral reaction to see students with a technical education spend two years and tens of thousands of dollars getting a masters degree in "data science". These folks basically spend two years learning what they can pick up in a few coursera and youtube classes which is basically how to "operate" scikit learn. Which made me realize even in my CS degree all the "useful" courses could fit into one semester and the rest was just learnt the old fashioned (read: medieval) apprentice way - osmosis from being around other practitioners. Paraphrasing the great Yogi - thing change yet so much remains the same.
