@floydophone I don't doubt that it can broaden the outlook and knowledge considerably. It's the emphasis in the job ads that worries me.2 replies 0 retweets 3 likes -

@dan_abramov@floydophone asking for computer science degrees for front-end work might also mean that they value that as "real programming"2 replies 0 retweets 3 likes -

I don't have a degree but I can do front-end work. It's much easier for me b/c I do open source though.

@dan_abramov Open source is what's done it for me. Had no work experience or education prior. @killerswan @floydophone
