!rant how many of you work as web developers (front, back, fullstack, devops, alien, ... ) without a CS degree ? And if it's the case, do you suffer from it at work ?

    Not suffering but I do wish I knew more about Math and physics. From the programming side of things I don't any problems

    Will start my first gig without the CS degree in a few weeks. I'll let you know how it goes.

    Not suffer but when we start talking about algorithms and stuff I can't follow as easily as other CS graduates. But in my experience it all boils down to experience and how much you learn on your own time.

    No post-high-school degree here, never had an issue with it. When you encounter something you don't know - you learn it. As long as you have the motivation to and an interest in the subject you can obtain the knowledge, school or not.

    I somehow ended up being the go-to science guy in the team, though I'm the only one without a degree... Currently I am helping one of the devs with his exams prep (statistics, calculus 2, LAAG, etc.) for his second CS bachelor's (god, why...)

    So tl;dr - you don't need any of that until you do or are curious.

    The only thing I regret is that I likely missed some of the foundations of programming by picking it up ad hoc, but other than that I'm fine with not going for the degree.
