Medical school can be brutal, and it’s making many of us suicidal
I see parallels with medical school in tech hiring.<p>They put the students through hell because that&#x27;s what they had to go through, and they&#x27;re rent seeking.<p>In most other countries, doctors don&#x27;t have an accreditation board. Most things are simple, and it doesn&#x27;t require years of school to set a bone or put in some stitches, or even diagnose the flu or pneumonia.<p>Similarly, you don&#x27;t need a rockstar or ninja to write your CRUD app. Anybody who knows what he&#x27;s doing will be able to do that, he doesn&#x27;t need to be the best of the best, he just needs to be competent.
