I have a degree of some (pretty OK) French business school, and been working as a developer for 8 years already

I always find myself reading some random courses that I find around on Internet; so many times I wished to have followed a well organised, coherent theoretical learning track, for ex, in compilers

Is my business degree worth it? I paid it dearly, around 12000/y for 3 years, it adds absolutely nothing to the ability to perform my job.

It does however, act like a signal for recruiters, signalling that I am "smart enough", and multiple times I found that it did play a non-negligible role
