The article itself is great but I like how everyone is jumping into diminishing people's degrees here. What are we even comparing them to? Influencers? People selling scams (courses)? Somebody doing the same thing every day for 15 years?
Linus built a kernel that's now powering most of the internet as part of his Master degree project. I have built massive prototypes (nowhere close to Linux) in record time just to be able to test and publish work.
I went through the study programs of some universities and they look decent. If I am to hire somebody, I always put people with degrees on top.
I get that some people aren't that good for certain things but it's lazy to assume their degrees are the problem.
