Reminder that CS degrees are a meme
Have fun working at mcdonalds for the next few years

Reminder that CS is one of the most in demand degrees.

Enjoy serving coffee at Starbucks SJW major.

>tfw you find the right code to reference then work the concept behind it into your existing code to both get a good grade and further your understanding of the language
>tfw you find a way to do it better as you reflect on it
>tfw your submission is the only one that looks like an actual professional and not copypasted pajeet garbage

That last one is painful. It's easy to feel good when your classmates are unvirtuously lazy, but it's a sad sort of victory.

By statistics alone it is but try actually getting a job with that meme degree and no real portfolio you'll be laughed out of 99% of interviews

>>59442234
I already have a portfolio though.

The best part is when people like you get lower grades for having an unoptimized, original solution. This has happened to me before. First time, I tried my best to come up with a solution. Second time, different assignment, copy and paste. Perfect marks for the second time.

Web devs with degrees make dosh, friendo, better than 90% of non-STEM degrees.

building a few shitty web apps does not make up for lack of a degree, bootcamp faggot

>>59442281
Yeah he's probably a bootcamp faggot who doesn't even know what a binary tree is.

>when people fall for meme languages
Gets me every time!

>>59442257
I was always among the very top-scoring in my classes, actually. A better way leads to better optimisation and more elegant code by definition, otherwise it's not better. Yet even then, sometimes "worse" is in fact "better" for other reasons. It's a strange world.

>>59442296
nice strawman

not sure what school you guys go to where optimization is important. 99% of the time, the professors just want a working solution that isn't completely shit. have good formatting, clean coding style, functionality and demonstrates knowledge of the student = A, easily.

>>59442327
Post salary and region bootcamp faggot.

>>59442343
Looks like you go to a shit school.

>>59442358
did I say optimization wasn't important? obviously optimization is important, but the professors aren't expecting the students to produce highly optimized code for little toy assignments. I don't want to have to namedrop my school, because it isn't important

and even if it were the case, are you really that much of a brainlet that you need to copy paste to get that optimization?
