So due to facebook, I get to see what all my friends are up to. I can't help but notice, that those who attended specialized institutions such as music schools, art schools, or technical programs are now doing some pretty awesome shit. And I see that all my friends who attended liberal arts schools, have really done nothing in particular, and everything in general. So consistently, I see that depth in education yields much cooler results than trying to learn everything.
And I'm somewhere in the middle, but really had to do a lot of work outside of school to gain enough useful skills in the field of computing to do cool stuff.
What do you guys think? Is there much value in trying to learn a lot of things superficially?
This was the video that I saw on facebook that made me think about this. I jammed with this guy a bit in high school, and he was good, but now...woah.
