Thanks for reading. We'll be back to our regular dumb puns shortly.

(and I know a few folks with no degrees. I have nothing but respect for their autodidactic achievements)

I know plenty of folks in tech, many in high places, whose degrees have little to do with computer science. What their educational background taught them was *how* to learn, which is frankly as or more valuable. 8/8

And so if we're going to embrace creative destruction and a dynamic, adaptive economy, the availability of training for people who are not 18-y/o HS graduates is essential. 7/X

But there are legit programs, increasingly offered by legit institutions (my local UC Berkeley for example) that can't teach you enough to get going and land a position. And once you're in the door, you don't stop learning. You literally can't. 6/X

I of course worry about predatory for-profit bootcamps that offer low-quality instruction, waving a carrot of a tech salary to draw tuition money, and I resent the idea that learning to write code doesn't require serious hard work. 5/X

But squint, and this ends up looking like an apprenticeship model. And you know what? Doctors don't come out of med school doing brain surgery. The do a "residency" -- highly supervised practice. a.k.a. an apprenticeship.

A "10x" engineer is a horribly individualist, Randian concept, but there are engineers that produce great value through mentorship and team management. It's a valuable, hard-to-teach skill. 3/X

Look at any legitimate software project team. It's always varied abilities. Senior engineers and "architects" guide the work of the more junior "individual contributors". This is what I do at work all day -- half coding, half guiding. 2/X

Here are my thoughts on "bootcamps". Unlike, say, surgery, not all computer work is doctorate-level. Of course, plenty is. One needn't have a bachelor's to start. I certainly didn't when I was a kid futzing with an Amiga 500. It was me, the computer, and a book. 1/X

In my defense I do plenty of technical reading but it seems to be about software.

I bought it sometime around when it came out after reading a review and it went to my queue of things to read. And somehow a 150 page math book never made it to the top of the queue.

If Warren got a vote for every fundraising email she sent me, she's got Iowa sewn up.
