A "Developer" today is very different to a developer 7 years ago [http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Steve_Ballmer http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Steve_Ballmer].
I started as a software developer in the 90's. Back then, if you didn't have a degree or similar it was considered strange.
These days, if you have a degree (and nothing else - no github / stackoverflow / portfolio etc) then THAT is strange
- yoklov 11y agoStrange, I wasn't working that long ago, but most of what I've heard from people who have is that not having a degree was very common. This might be a game industry vs rest of software engr thing though.
