Put in the effort to really learn, and you’ll be ahead of 90% of them

Not even gonna tell you what to learn, whether it’s algos, web shit, systems, whatever… if you’re putting a lot of effort into it, you will be ahead of most people who on average don’t have anything more outside of class than a TODO list made in React

If you hate web you don’t have to learn React, though you should probably learn enough of some web framework to make a personal website. But Git you should absolutely learn, at least on a basic level. Plz don’t be that intern who doesn’t know what a branch is
