Or possibly some people aren't necessarily wired to grok
the concepts needed to get ahead in this industry and find
that while they like the increased earning potential sitting
in a desk all day long writing code isn't for them.
To be honest in the long run they're probably better off
with a business degree and MBA if they really want to max out
on earning potential.
Meanwhile power to them. It keeps our salaries higher.
- pnathan 15y agoThere's a decent body of research that shows talent doesn't really play much of a role in learning, it's more will and the willingness to work hard.
- WalterBright 15y agoI've long suspected that talent in anything amounts to about 1% of your success, and the other 99% is hard work. Note that things like athletic events are designed to discriminate the tiniest of differences from one althlete to the next.
