Actually in programming it does. The monetary value is not worth the paper when a major in CSE is not going to get you any more knowledge than you had when you started. The education is not education at that point, its just a unneeded and expensive hoop to jump through.
CSE courses are designed in the 4 year setting to be taught to people who basically have no programming experience. Those people are few and far between going into those courses, as again, most programmers start programming at a very young age. They will have 6-8 years of self-education (which usually means reading thick ass books on their own) before they even apply to school.
Any decent firm is going to not have some pencil pushing HR dickwad who has no programming experience looking just for a degree. They will have technical managers do the interviews and resume processing because they know that some of the best people in the industry have the least formal education.
yes the irony of the guy who sits on an internet forum all the time because he cant find companionship anywhere else
irony indeed

You can live without internet forums, but you can't live without programming. The entire Western lifestyle is dependent upon programming and the current Western lifestyle as we know it would not be the same without it. You encounter something that relies on programmers so many times throughout the day, yet you just take it for granted.

Probably something to do with not being on for months.
Don't wish children on them, they have a remarkable damper on fairly much everything from bank balance's to wits end and a few other things. About the only upside for me is mine are adopted Still doesn't spare me 'fun' stories from other women regaling me about how having them was the best thing ever with 5 hours of labour, then having 17 stitches in their minge trying to fit a grapefruit sized head through something a 1/20th of its circumference...
Oh they can laugh about it now, but they pee sometimes while doing it.
I don't regret my prime child bearing years being spent making money and being a bohemian wastrel.
