I graduated this year. Great program at an incredible price, I think it was less than $7k for me after they reduced the fee. I didn't have a CS undergrad (Other stem) but was working as a software engineer and wanted to bulk up on basi

It would help if half the content on this site wasn't highly unethical lol. It feels like the tech industry is having a moment where a lot of us are looking critically at the work we're doing and the effects it has on the society

Productivity is not the only aspect of our profession that matters, and in fact it's probably not even the most important part. I'm not suggesting we get stuck or handcraft every aspect of our code, and there are multitudes of abs
