@Lor-inc that's really all the degree was. School didn't teach me anything I need to know for this job besides the very, very, very basics. The degree got me in the door though, rather annoyingly
-
Joke is on my institution when they hired me. I have a degree in C.S: Calligraphy Studies.
Haha I just wrote B.S in CS and they bought it SIKE putos! -
@AleCx04 that sounds like an amazing thing to double major or major/minor in
I would love to get a minor in some offbeat field like Climate Studies just for that -
@RememberMe I have found that in regards to Computer Science, a lot of the interesting things happen with people from different backgrounds that apply Computer Science to their respective domains. Music, Physics, Math etc etc there are a lot of very interesting things happening by people who do not have C.S just as their main background. It did not occur to me until recently in which I am seeing a lot of people work as practitioners of deep learning doing something interesting in their respective fields. My original plan of study wasn't even Computer Science, it was music :P for example, and I can see a lot of benefit of mixing both items together to do interesting things.
I sometimes consider getting a different major in either biology (one of my fav subjects in H.S) or music, but at this point I need to continue going above in terms of C.S to get to the position that i want inside of my institution. -
@AleCx04 whoa, bio was my favourite in high school too, I almost went into biosciences but decided to switch to computers because I liked that just a teensy bit more.
I see no reason why I have to stop studying after graduating, planning to go for a course in bio or space sciences after I finish masters. No idea where it'll lead me, but it's a cool topic.
Oh, what in music? General/composition or performance in a particular instrument? -
jeeper58094y@AleCx04 ideally we would just pick up programming languages as a means to an end in pursuit of our passions.
