      I’m a software engineer. There’s people on my team that went to Yale for computer science. There’s also people on my team that took a six month coding boot camp. They’re both great at their jobs.

        Specifics of software engieneering. Doesn’t work with civil engieneering, electrical engieneering and many other fields.

          I agree, I was purely agreeing with

          Many jobs societally requiring a degree could be learned on the job very quickly.

          I still think the formality of some fields is still too “can you afford it,” but that’s for another topic

              It’s bullshit and we both know it. Don’t pretend that following an existing protocol for building bridges safely is so hard and requires education that I can’t get in 6 months.

              It’s not like engineers are allowed to do whatever they want, they have rules to follow, none of which will be told to them in university because universities are worthless.

                And this is why I said you can’t learn civil engieneering in six months.

        Some people just can’t be trained to write code. You still need the aptitude at the end of the day.
