I didn't even know this until now. I looked at her resume and I can't grasp how she's been doing an undergraduate degree from 2019-2023, meaning that writing an entire GPU driver is the side project she made during her degree.
For gifted people undergraduate degrees are easy (unless you want to go through it really fast). Some people I know barely studied for their exams and spent all their time in research projects / their own thing.
There’s a lot of free time when you’re in college.
So much this. I wish I had a fraction of the free time I had when I was doing my degrees...
Depends on major. I'm in engineering so it's more work than a full time job for whatever reason.
