“Computer science education cannot make anybody an expert programmer any more than studying brushes and pigment can make somebody an expert painter.” − Eric S. Raymond

I get the point but I don't think it's a fair comparison.

@Olverine wow. Someone said the same thing for the original post on Twitter

@Olverine
It's like the more and more I think about this comparison makes it worse.

CS studies should be compared to painting with teaching principles like perspective, shapes, shading etc. Even though they are good to know, those skills alone doesn't make a great painter.

Computer science education and expertise in programming is interesting subject to discuss. I agree with the fact that education alone cannot make someone an expert programmer. While computer science education provides a foundation and necessary knowledge, true expertise comes from practical experience, continuous learning, and problem-solving skills. As a student in the field of computer science, I understand the importance of hands-on coding, participating in real-world projects, and continuously exploring new technologies to sharpen my programming skills. Whenever I need asisstance, I am not afraid of asking help from https://essaylab.com/coursework-wri... because education serves as a stepping stone, but it is the dedication to self-improvement truly transforms a student into an expert programmer.
