How many of y’all have ever worked with someone who never went to college?

weird internet kid. word rotator. yapping on /okbanger. playing with @wannanaplabs. curating in /cameron | dev + vet + HBS.

Staff engineer at my last startup. Super smart and hardworking guy. He did however had this insane urge to always be proving that he was a hardcore engineer and that made him kind of toxic.

Tricks with polynomials and Riemann-Roch spaces. Breaking into the platonic realm to pillage forbidden abstractions. Starknet grantee.

yea a career-long of feeling like you don’t belong can definitely cause that

Definitely, we bonded over this. I was a lot younger than he was and I did go to college but I majored in psychology. We were the only non engineers in the engineering team and also the only ones using things like emacs/vim, esoteric PLs like haskell/ocaml and arch as an OS to compensate for that fact lmao

Haha gotta gain your advantage somehow - thanks for sharing 🫡
