The corporate mindset leaking into every aspect of society 🤮 Like, where are you supposed to specialize beyond large classes if not at goddamn masters level in uni?! Insanity.
I know right?? I actually feel cheated because I was promised something the school failed to offer to me. They had me write a review of the program this past semester and I was not particularly kind.
At least learning resources for my actual areas of interest are generally freely available to learn on my own time... and an MS looks good on a resume...
I'm actually considering work in the public sector at this point so I can have a work/life balance and actual benefits. Used to be the private sector had better long-term career prospects, but tbh I'd rather take the pay cut and escape the corporate dehumanization.
The FOSS community has been a great outlet for my actual interests because I can use what I know to help people instead of feeding into the technocratic slop machine. It's also been helpful in finding areas where I'd enjoy specializing.
