    It's something I noticed too. Computer science doesn't seem to have as much "science", and in STEM. The s and m are much quieter than the T and E. Not to say that engineering isn't cool as shit even though I never majored in it (right now I'm weighing between CS and bioinformatics). Just that the US is turning itself into a one-trick pony.

      Globalisation creates one-trick ponies. The entire world has been moving towards each country specialising into a very very specific thing, whether it's technology or financial services or w/e.

        Definitely, but I am surprised that it is happening to even amerikkka, a country with 331 million people and spans almost a continent wide.
