speaking as someone who went to college, I'd have to take issue with
the fact that your statement implies that autodidacts don't have
an education.  I, for one, dropped out of college because  CS wasn't
teaching me anything that a) I didn't already know, b) that I wanted to
know c) I felt was of any practical value.  

I don't care what your background is, I just care if you can code.

Flat out.
