No remember this is Hacker News. Most people here learned to code "in a weekend" and they can pick up a new framework "in a weekend". They also see no use wasting money on a 4 year computer science curriculum if you can just learn to program "in a weekend".

Ok I'm being extremely facetious here but it still shocks me when people comment in machine learning or data science threads asking about how they'd go about picking this up but you can clearly tell they have no formal background in the sciences. I guess the only reason it angers me is because if they had just done a CS degree instead of trying to "hack it" none of this would seem like magic.
