actually, he missed a point in why they want "socialism". They have a bleak outlook of paying so much money to college for a degree that won't pay them enough to cover more than the interest on their loans.

2018-05-24 13:24:36 UTC  

Well, I can say from my personal experience that if you wanna go to STEM fields, like I did, or other research fields, College is an imperative. However, stuff like Liberal Arts and Gender studies courses leave lots of students with no job prospects

2018-05-24 13:25:05 UTC  

They would have used their time in a much better way if they went to trade schools.

2018-05-24 13:25:05 UTC  

@Deleted User most STEM fields, but not all. specifically the tech ones.

2018-05-24 13:25:12 UTC  

Yes, Tech ones

2018-05-24 13:25:18 UTC  

those you can get away without college education

2018-05-24 13:25:29 UTC  

you can learn all you need to know from the internet and working under someone

2018-05-24 13:25:40 UTC  

he missed a lot of things

Low wages are the result of there being more supply than demand for workers (illegals, low skilled plebs)
So companies don't have to raise wages to attract people, they can pick any pleb and demand low wages because if you dont like it they'll just pick someone else

And with that high supply of labor-fit people, that can't get a job, you get high taxes because someone has to pay for their welfare whilst they look for a new job

'for you ten others'

2018-05-24 13:25:59 UTC  

Well, you can learn, sure. But when I went into interviews, they wanted my degree first

2018-05-24 13:26:15 UTC  

I'm a software engineer.

2018-05-24 13:26:19 UTC  

so am i

2018-05-24 13:26:28 UTC  

shipped products would have had greater value

2018-05-24 13:26:31 UTC  

me also, though specialised in computer game development

2018-05-24 13:26:34 UTC  

without that, my education is all i had

2018-05-24 13:26:50 UTC  

@Dr.Wol same. although my full degree was officially computer science

2018-05-24 13:26:59 UTC  

you know anything about opengl?

2018-05-24 13:27:39 UTC  

I'm an Mtech, so we may be different

2018-05-24 13:27:40 UTC  

had to deal with it, prefer opentk

2018-05-24 13:27:56 UTC  

how well versed are you in opentk? 😛

2018-05-24 13:28:34 UTC  

god, haven't used it in probably like 3 years. but i might be able to give you a hand if you want to DM at some point

2018-05-24 13:28:43 UTC  
2018-05-24 13:29:02 UTC  

You guys don't have it there?

2018-05-24 13:29:34 UTC  

we may, i just don't know if you are talking about a company or something like medical technology

2018-05-24 13:29:56 UTC  

Mtech is either Medical technology or Mechanical technology (robotics) i think

2018-05-24 13:30:03 UTC  

Masters in technology

2018-05-24 13:30:08 UTC  

aah

2018-05-24 13:30:18 UTC  

Fuck medical

2018-05-24 13:30:25 UTC  

i'm working on my premasters right now actually

2018-05-24 13:30:36 UTC  

Medical is hell here

2018-05-24 13:30:42 UTC  

ooooh, okay.

2018-05-24 13:30:44 UTC  

you can spend decades in it

2018-05-24 13:30:54 UTC  

And end up jobless

2018-05-24 13:31:27 UTC  

yes we have masters, but they are usually called MS

2018-05-24 13:31:33 UTC  

yeah

2018-05-24 13:31:38 UTC  

MS CS, master of science in computer science

2018-05-24 13:32:08 UTC  

@Deleted User yes, that would make things very different

2018-05-24 13:32:33 UTC  

Where do you guys live?

2018-05-24 13:32:36 UTC  

Netherlands

2018-05-24 13:32:36 UTC  

US

2018-05-24 13:33:08 UTC  

I don't know about netherlands, but i'm pretty sure they don't offer mtech in the US
