if i was to take a newbie, i would much rather hire someone who has
taken algorithms and data structures, queuing, ... than someone who
has spent their time studying for whatever juniper and cisco call
their vendor certifications.

one can teach a monkey how to hack a router, as is demonstrated on
a daily basis.  but a little computer science goes a much longer
way.
