You made the right choice. I just graduated, and can feel the effects already with my offers. More importantly, I made many valuable friendships, connections, and learned a ton of theory while publishing papers - all much harder to gain in the real world. Have a great time, and good luck!
Shopfiy intern?
I'm not a Shopify intern. I work at a relatively small company, which is not internationally known. We are mainly a white label ISP, but also have both managed and unmanaged servers for companies and government entities which can not or will not use public cloud providers.
In the end, I did choose to go to university. I will be working part-time to pay about 90% of it (including housing) which means I'll have practically no debt. The main reason for me to go, was that I don't want to de a developer for the rest of my life. I think that having a degree will make a eventual career switch a lot easier.
