"at least two natural languages"

I'm half that good!

It seems like our profession hasn't changed much at all. Makes me feel like I'll be well prepared for the workplace 40 years in the future.




My favorite part was when he answered he has a high school diploma. He mentions he has five years in university but all you really need is a high school diploma.

As someone who spent five and a half years (first four for a BS mathematics degree and a year and half for BS computer science degree) as an undergraduate student, it makes me happy to hear professionals say that.

K-12 school is just as important as ever. I just wish we started second language instruction at lower grades. It could be Spanish, French, German, Mandarin... It'd be nice if we started much earlier.
