Wisdom on the Death of the Computer Science Degree
Description
I truly wonder how life would be if I were born just a year earlier or later. Literally one year makes such a difference, and it’s sad. Or I guess if I graduated college a year earlier or a year later. I would have either just barely missed the COVID pandemic by graduating in 2019 or I would've graduated during the 2021 job burst. But no, I graduated in 2020, so I went into the workforce at the literal worst possible time. Everything rippled from that moment. And I still have yet to recover.And now, me with no experience not only has to compete with outsourced workers and H1B's, but I also have to compete with AI. It might be hard for fresh graduates and people like me to hear, but there is literally no point caring anymore. Just embrace the new technology. Don't get baited by people who already made it to not use AI for code. You are literally taking a handicap for the free by doing that. Like it or not, but the people who use AI will be the equivalent of the internet tech company bros soon.
