You're right. Which is why I have been pushing to entirely separate the concepts of university education and of a job in the minds of Hacker News readers.

If you want a job, go to dev bootcamp. Or online school. Or watch YouTube videos. Or just get a job. Or go to school then get a job.

If you want to go to school, go to school.

Let's all get along and stop trying to dismiss the other path as invalid, worthless, or dumb. It's everyone's prerogative to go to school or not. Stop comparing the two or drawing associations.

Most developers already have a well paying job (likely including you) that's why they don't prioritise job education as much as a student who enrolls this year.
