    You frame that as if the same can’t happen if you use AI. At least if you actually do the work you have the knowledge and the ability to research.

      My argument is knowledge is priceless, but education is worthless. Degrees now mean nothing whether AI assisted or not so going into insane debt for no reason is reckless.

        depends on your major, and if you were able to get said experience, some are quite difficult to get especially if requires wet lab work and research experience(which isnt neccesary but is highly sought after especially if it was published) in STEMS. if a students gets a psyche or studies degree without the forethought of a graduate schools thats on them, and i hear alot of them whine and become bitter about it. just because you can finish the degree faster, wont lead you to a job.

        i followed one person on yotube, asian whiened about his psych major, eventually became bitter and full magat and one of his latest rants is about college. i had cousin get a psyche major but with proper proecedures she got a psyD which is the correct career track, Phd is another but harder to achieve.

        If you’re coding or whatever this is fine. But I would really, really like my doctors and engineers to be educated by other doctors and engineers.

          If you’re coding or whatever this is fine.

          I want coders to learn from trusted sources too. How do you authorize a user and store the password (plain text, hash, encrypt)? Do you use MD5 or SHA-256? (Always hash passwords, don’t use MD5)

          If you have to encrypt some information, do you use AES or Triple DES ? (never Triple DES)

          When authorizing with OAuth, should one send the auth url, client id, client secret, scopes, and redirect url to the client machine? (yes, yes, no, yes, yes)


          These are basic questions with answers that are easy to find…and many programmers get them very, very wrong. Mostly out of carelessness, often the question itself doesn’t even pop into their head.
