Hey c0d3rs, I’m genuinely confused and looking for honest thoughts.
I’m considering doing a Master’s could be MTech or something else. But with the industry moving this fast, is spending two more years in a classroom still the best path?
This is something that i’ve encountered many times, probably as much I have overthought about it. Maybe I haven’t had enough interest in it, probably lack of support? It necessarily doesn’t harm me till I bleed, but it sure is a hassle.
Acquiring skills, what for?
Me and my friends had spent 5 hours brainstorming learning how to use a Meta Quest 2 and designing games with Unity Hub and Blender (to help our college get a proper rating for ranks). VERY FUN! But… i’ve done it before. This isn’t the first time dealing with Unity Hub, or even Blender. But i’ve forgot all about them, using them as if i’ve witnessed it for the first time. I forgot, not because I have a memory of a goldfish, but because… I just never had to use them.
Why did I learn them, as well as many other skills… It struck…
I will say you are going great. First few years in college plus first few years in job are meant to f*ck around and learn a lot of things, and simultaneously figuring out what you want to do. One thing that I will ask you to keep in note is that you learn the things in depth when you are learning. That way, picking them up even after 5 years will not be so hard since you will have a neural path built specifically for that knowledge that just needs reawakening.

Great question! A Master's is worth it if you're chasing deep tech, research, or academia. But if you're more into hands-on work or startups, real-world experience might give you more edge. In today’s world, skills speak louder than degrees—unless the degree adds real value.
