#232 - The Harsh Truth About Coding, AI, Bootcamps, and Breaking in to Tech
Manage episode 478199490 series 3399111
Think you need a CS degree to get hired? That bootcamps are scams? That AI is making developers obsolete?
In this episode, I share some very hot takes on what it really takes to break into tech — and why most of what you’ve been told is dead wrong.
I talk about the rise and fall of bootcamps, the myth of guaranteed outcomes, why advice from FAANG engineers probably doesn’t apply to you, and why can hate JavaScript but you still must learn it.
