    somebody in the comments calls this guy out for being "overly dramatic" in describing the 3.5 years spent on this project as "10% of his life", and his retort is pure douche bag.

    he says that "well, it's longer than i spent getting my bachelor's degree and my two master's degrees combined."

    what an abject loser and likely pathological liar. sure, one can probably squeeze 120 credit hours into 3 years by stacking every semester and earning summer credits (dork). but if you can do that and pull in the 30x2 upper division hours it would take for two masters simultaneously, you are absolutely double (or triple) dipping, taking every easy pass/fail course you can find, and effectively slicing the credential sausage so thin it could be measured in angstroms. as much respect as i can acknowledge for someone who greases an institution like that, it's the opposite of pursuing edification. it's blatant careerist paper milling.

    if i was on a hiring panel i would red flag that, contact the issuing institution to verify it and advocate for the well rounded person who isn't a self-brand obsessed fabulist.

      both those people suck honestly if youre 30 and you work 3 years on something thats 10% of your life im gonna call that one as fine. But then the college thing? ugh, disgusting shit. Also your degrees cant be worth that much if you did them that quick, if youre telling the truth.

        Yeah I got a Masters in a semester. Was very much fake/just a piece of paper for taking classes I could have during undergrad if I wasn't so lazy. Very silly to brag about rushing through college

          Yeah, there's definitely a coursework master's in there. Which most people finishing a bachelor's are probably a few hairs away from anyway. It's actually really funny to work R&D and brag about your master's degrees. Guaranteed most people on his team have done PhDs and have serious original research under their belt. Not like random semester long projects and seminar courses.

      well, it’s longer than i spent getting my bachelor’s degree and my two master’s degrees combined

      At some point you're not finishing degrees fast because you're smart, they're just bullshit degrees.
