    I saw my lecturers code. It was some of the worst code I’ve ever seen. If they’d written it in any company I’ve worked for over the last 20 years they’d have been sacked.

    Most lecturers are more about the theory and computer science, not the practicalities of software engineering.

      35 years in the industry. I’ve been helping my kid with their assignments. These profs would be sacked for even the specs they write. Just horrible. And my kid is going to decent school.
