I gave an anecdote mentioning one shitty individual who would likely do shitty things even as a proper CS student yes. Beyond that I'm dissing the form of education, not the individual human. Maybe they're "nice" people

I'm speaking less about the individual and more about the method of education. I don't think someone should go from zero experience, to 6 or 12 month bootcamp, to lead engineer at their first job. Something very wrong with "t
