Re:The Stigma of Choosing Trade School over College by sametmax on Thursday March 07, 2019 @11:48AM (#19329569)
I don't know. I've been programming for 15 years now, and if I had to do it again, I would drop from school at 16 years old.

I'm not saying it's the only right way to do it. But given my profile and my history, I would have saved years of wasted hours, frustration and money without loosing much.

To me, the one thing we need to improve is to accept that school was a great improvement over what we had, but we now can sometime choose paths that are an improvement over school.
