My opinion is that it will always be debated:
So it's not easy to have the wisdom to know when it matters or not.
good observation, thanks for sharing!
No, you don’t need to know algorithms to be a software engineer. There are definitely jobs that require or benefit from that knowledge, but there are also a lot of engineering roles where the day-to-day job responsibilities will not involve algorithms.
Having knowledge around data structures is definitely beneficial in software dev, but it’s not a requirement to have a mastery of this skill.
very solid perspective!
