Yes absolutely. Discussing what's your favorite tech stack to me sounds like discussing what's your favorite shoes

No one cares besides you. And in the end it probably doesn't matter which one you pick from a purely logical point of view :)

Completely disagree with you here. If you want to be a good engineer you must be aware of the current market and trends.

If anything I'd even argue that reality TV takes away a lot of humanities from you like social skills and social perceptions.

If you want to be a good socialite and marketing professional, you need to know what's trendy and who's influencing the general population. Same idea

It's completely absurd to think that watching reality tv would give you any social or marketing skills — if anything I'd argue it's the complete opposite.
