Personally I found (observing the difference between my own experience and some of my friends) that ignorance can be bliss. I didn't read the books, and muddled my way through. Sure there were some things I learnt slower (like the bene

But most of Europe aren’t spending 20-30% of their income on healthcare. If you take that into account I wonder how these numbers stack up

This has not been my experience. Any recruiter I talk to asks for a CV. If I tell them my linked in is up to date they just ask me to convert it into a CV

I would assume the flow to be the same for debugging post bundled Production output from most tooling, use source maps and hope that the bundler produced accurate ones :)

I believe the Lego mindstorms stuff was actually lobbies under the hood? I seem the rememberer the NI folks handing out large mindstorms sets as pressies to engineers because they had a partnership with Lego. It was semi common to see engin

Respectfully I’d dissagree. The OP has (at least I would read it this way) that they can allready code. Hacker school time could be better spent searching for the right fit of employer

I did a robotics degree, (half mech eng and half elec eng) then I helped out my dad with a software side project of his and turned the experience into my first job. I did 5 years of elec hardware design and then got a job as a software dev.
