MODERATORS
I was going to say something about self teaching or volunteering (eg: working on open source stuff for free), but like giving your labor away for free kind of sucks. Do we expect other fields to do that? Are accountants just doing finance for free?
Also you won't learn important stuff like how to work in a professional context. I've met hobby programmers that don't know how to work on a team.
You're not entirely wrong but I don't think it's a perfect solution
