Better Auth, by a self-taught Ethiopian dev, raises $5M from Peak XV, YC

Aren’t we all self taught? I’m not sure why that part of the story is relevant. In over 15 years of this business, I’ve directly been on a team with probably 5-10 total people with a comp-sci degree — and that includes my time at Apple. Mark Zuckerberg was self-taught.

No, a lot of people go to college or "bootcamps" before entering the field. Given the amount of computer science graduates, I'd say we're not all self-taught.
