    Studying computer science coaches young people’s brains into only thinking in terms of binary reasoning, and is the reason so many tech bros are fascist. I think it’s actively harmful to people’s development, and should be kept away from children until they are emotionally mature.

      I’ll personally shun you. Programming by hand is an art form, there are infinite ways to solve the same problem and resilience, security and UX are all spectrums. Programming style is so unique that in a company of 10 people without a linter you can kinda tell who wrote what based on style alone.

      Take an upvote, this is exactly what OP requested.

        I don’t know if I would agree… Variety and uniqueness doesn’t equate to art. There’s an infinite amount of ways to write a medical note, and in a large office of providers I can tell who wrote them based on composition and style…that doesn’t make me an artist.

        I work in medicine, and certain sects of our field have a similar issue. They promote pragmatic and utilitarian thinking, which when utilized within the field makes sense. The problem is when people utilize this kinda problem solving on social problems at a grand scale. I would have a similar problem with people learning how to do triage or surgery at the same age kids are getting into cs.

          I guess it’s hard to explain how a program is a work of art and use the doctor’s note analogy but calligraphy and readability are definitely factors. Maybe if we’d consider a hypothetical note where you can’t do anything yourself but an idiot intern has to read it and follow the instructions exactly on what to do?

            Kinda the main factor you keep in mind when writing medical notes. The notes are to inform anyone reading them what your subjective and objective observations were and, your actions, and plan of care for the patient.

      I really can’t see how you draw a connection from digital technology using binary to binary thinking, and learning computer science has the exact opposite effect. It teaches you to be analytical and break down problems into workable solutions, approach things from multiple perspectives, searching for the most elegant solution, etc. Not to mention open source and the hacker philosophy, both antiethical to fascism.

      People who study CS are usually strongly on the left. Techbros went to business school, not tech school.

        People I’ve met or talked to online who are in cs tend to think/argue very linearly and in a utilitarian fashion. Which is great for solving issues where you know exactly what the problem is or have a direct goal, but if applied to social problems can be very destructive.

        Not to mention open source and the hacker philosophy, both antiethical to fascism.

        Also a minority of people working in tech.

        Maybe in your country? In the US CS is pretty well known for being pretty full of centerist/ right wing sexist.

          I’m in the US and all my friends in tech are socialists champing at the bit for a well organized general strike.

          Maybe it’s because I live in a city?

      One of the biggest issues in society is education, but it’s not limited to any one area. It’s fundamental to our language based systems. There is something fundamentally untranslatable and intransmissible about knowledge. It even goes beyond philosophical qualia. People innately classify chunks of reality and then are trained to classify them in even more complex ways, usually based on their affordances, but the possibility space contains near infinite variety we map into a finite, and in some cases extremely crude conceptual space. So much of social existence is based upon the recognition of distinctions that exist as sub-classes to the sub-classes to the sub-classes to the classes delineated so long ago they are part of the ideological foundations to the maps themselves.

      Humans are not capable of comprehending the unintelligible infinity of reality at any age.
