+ Learn about the real reasons you should be in school from David Wolever, + CTO of akindi and a director of PyCon Canada. +

+
+ +

+ Hindsight is 20/20, and since leaving university I’ve had five years and three + startups to reflect on the most valuable things I have (and haven’t) taken away + from my time in school. + David studied computer science for three years at the University of Toronto + before leaving to be employee zero at a Waterloo-based startup. Since then + he has been a founder of two more startups, started PyCon Canada, and has + written hundreds of thousands of lines of code. He is currently CTO of Akindi, a + Toronto-based startup trying to make multiple choice testing a bit less terrible. + He’s best found on Twitter at http://twitter.com/wolever +
