So what is it you want to do in the future? Posting link spam for a living?  ::)

Come on, give the poster a chance. He appeared to have read the thread.

Yes, but no. All the other hallmarks of a spam poster are there -- new user, old thread, vaguely relevant short post. "Education" threads are a popular link-spam target; plenty of student help sites are looking for attention. And if you Google the poster's account name, you will find half a dozen posts to various forums, all dating from the last two days, apparently all with a similar theme.

Nice attempt, and bonus points for getting three "thanks" for a spam post. I have not reported the post yet to see how this plays out, but am pretty sure what to expect over the next couple of days...

EDIT: And here we go... A rather patient spammer, waited a full two weeks. But they dropped their payload eventually:

I am deeply grateful to everyone of you. However, I still think that the education system in the US is broken. It's not working as intended, or maybe I had a really bad experience. I had some teachers that were discriminating me, they've been always mean, not accepting my homework and so on. The worst part was about essays. I had to scan half of the internet and look for essays ideas like here [[spam link removed]] for example, in order to make my homework, and my teacher to happy with it. This kind of experience made me feel really disappointed in the whole education.

At least it highlighted a nice thread.
I can just bring up my experience as I'm now changing a job related to EE and without a title
And the education importance at interviews is like: And btw what was your education?
So totally irrelevant, compared to experience and enthusiasm
University was just too crowded place for me to be, so I choose different way

PHD Person Helpless at Designing... or Person Highly Defective

armandine2:
In my experience, just a "red brick" undergraduate engineering course in the late 1980s, a PhD was not the prize for the best students. Industry beckoned all but the deferred PhD students, who had another agenda.

 I've read those Feynman biographies, where the star's university career seems to be the allotted route for the high flier, without much contradiction.
