    Also you can totally pass a CS degree at a directional state university without actually knowing shit about how to code. And the whiteboard questions they ask in interviews to prove you passed the data structures and algorithms course don't have much to do with what your actual job is, but what you wish your job would be.

      "Can you design intricate and complex software that could potentially better the lives of millions?"

      "Yes"

      "Cool. Go convert all the menus on our website to dropdown menus so it looks modern"

      Yeah, the point of a CS degree is the academic discipline and craft of computing. If you focus on the math, you don't program that often at all.
