That's definitely an interesting difference. Do you think excluding Information degrees results in a more relevant number? If so, why?
People with CS degrees tend to be the ones building new software. Information degrees vary a lot, but tend to have decreased math requirements and be more focused on the application of technology. As a software engineer working in the bay area, I have seen hundreds of engineers with CS degrees and zero engineers with information degrees - in my experience there is a stark difference, and I would be surprised and interested if the data showed otherwise.
The number I got for 2015 was 2.5% (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12101868)
One of the key sources of this difference is whether you count "Information" degrees as CS. My number doesn't include information degrees and yours does.
