Re:To Start a Company or Stay 100% Focused on School? by LPTS on Sunday October 05, 2008 @06:19PM (#324394)
School mostly sucks. College is a mechanism where mediocre minds fight for status, publishing and tenure like dogs over scraps and ensure the most brilliant people are reduced to a low common denominator, and train people to approach life like children even when they are growing up.

If you aren't 100% certain you need to be in school to do what you want with your life, start the company. Learning is awesome, schooling functions as a mechanism of control to make sure the really smart people don't learn so fast that they live up to their potential.
