Well I didn't have any formal tech education, just what I picked up on the job and through my own curiosity.

But I mean you don't teach a car mechanic metallurgy and aerodynamics, except to the extent they'll need to apply that knowledge towards specific goals. At some point the discipline is mature enough that people genuinely don't need to, and can't, know every level of it from the ground up.

I think coding is approaching or already at the point where "cs/fundamentals of computation" should be a different degree from "professional software development."
