  1. 14:52 I would google it too. And for the same reason. The most important thing about software is that it meets the changing needs of its intended purpose. So software needs to be well written, easy to validate, and easy to change.

  2. 12:11 they might teach only coding in Computer Science degrees… but they do teach software development in Software Engineering. I did a Software Engineering degree, and I’m constantly flabbergasted at how people with Computer Science degrees can’t actually write good software systems. They are great on the low level, but self-taught at the higher levels. I’m also flabbergasted that companies think Product Managers without software engineering degrees and experience are a good idea. Software Engineers are trained for that role at university.
