  • Depends on who is hiring.

    I’m in the role you are describing. I can’t code, but I’m good at troubleshooting and if required I can read code.

    I would much prefer to work along someone who spent highschool tinkering with game mods than someone with a CS degree, as troubleshooting requires a specific skillset that is developed better by breaking and fixing things than by learning the fundamentals of how computers work or best practices for coding.

    That said, if you wanna work for an OEM doing actual chip design or engineering and stuff, you’re prolly gonna need that degree.




  • Ehhhhh… So yes, but actually no.

    Ex: Bozo (this is a significant mispronunciation of your name) sure is racist!

    If people understand I’m talking about you, good enough, right?

    Two problems: 1) people may not know I’m talking about you, 2) people will likely assume I’m wrong… But as we’ll see, maybe not…

    Names are important, and if you can’t bother to get someone’s name right, or call a group of people by their preferred demonym, I can’t be bothered to respect what you are saying.

    While I respect that the idea being conveyed is the important bit, the idea being conveyed is going to sound racist as shit, and like you dont know what you are talking about.
