Title: I have been programming for 13 years now, which kinda makes me an old timer.  I have mostly done web backends (little frontend) and DevOps, but nothing FAANG level.<p>I am starting to get saturated with building regular apps and doing DevOps (some of them quite cool and challenging).  So I picked up Rust to get into low level systems programming.  It&#x27;s chugging along, but I am yet to make something cool with Rust.<p>I also try very hard to have an exponential personal growth.  It&#x27;s not been very successful so far.  I do keep learning but not at a speed I consider meaningful.<p>This made me think, should I go ahead and pursue a Masters degree in Computer Science? Specifically in my interest subject of Distributed Computing.  Is it too late for me to pursue it?  Is it even meaningful given my info above?  Has anyone had success with learning something Masters level without external motivation?<p>EDIT: I already have a Bachelor of Engineering Degree (non US)
