Re:10k hours rule to master anything. Could I switch career ... by jrm4 on Friday October 07, 2022 @12:29PM (#33123516)
Weird and interesting parallels: I quite enjoyed law school, did a few internships and practiced for a few years before mostly realizing the same thing, and still I have no regrets because things turned out well.

I took CS50 when it was probably very different (Brian Kernighan, the creator of C, teaching C)

Roughly, I ended up as a Chair of a Masters in IT program. Not doing that part anymore, but still a full time non-tenure teaching professor. (What technically, as in according to the rules of academia, qualifies me for all this, is the law degree. Weird. I'll take it!
