    You don’t really need to go to a school to learn coding. You can also learn this using SaaS platforms or WSL. Besides, most universities are mediocre garbage. I didn’t learn shit from a 4-year degree, and also, I’m jobless. Yes, I contribute to open-source projects regularly, and that still hasn’t improved my situation. None of the recruiters have checked my profile, because it’s a bunch of corporate bullshit to freeload on good-faith contributors while making bucks out of it. Right now, I’m working on my own projects, checking out a few open-source repo and checking out their design, as well as applying lazily, including unpaid jobs.
