Who they will work with? Work with smart people.

Case study:
Yale professor - assignment for each week,
student complained that it took 40 hours/ week to complete the assignment.

Students kept hours on the assignment.
4 hours vs 40 hours
Grade is objective, done by computer program, no human interaction.

No correlation between grades and hours spent on assignment.

Actionable Items:

Smart programmer makes 10 times difference. Look into this argument, different views.
