I agree with the "education is overrated...article" bit, but its not wrong in its premise either. CS/etc eduction is not about "being a good programmer", and I've seen a LOT of really poor programmers come out of good schools. If you want to be educated thats one thing, but if you just wanna be a good programmer, you're probably better off doing hackbright, codecademy or something other than "school".
