Re:CMU CS Academy: a free online computer science curriculum... by ajdoingnothing on Thursday February 16, 2023 @05:07AM (#34816901)
Imho, it is not worth it to study Computer Science, unless you really want to stay in academia (or for those niche areas in the industry). Though, even then I think you'd be better off with Math/Physics for an undergraduate degree and CS for a minor or graduate-level degree. How often is someone writing their own compiler or graphics engine? At least with Math/Physics, you'd have some useful foundation which easily translates to CS (rather than vice-versa).
