The theoretical computer scientist, not industry appliers.
Just as irrelevant today as they were when they were my age.

Presumably you meant that to be intimidating whilst driving your point home, but it isn't and I have no idea what your point is. OP asked about old school computer scientists, the people. Not the algorithms. At least that's how I read it.
I find theory more interesting than pure business applications.

You do realize that modern computers wouldn't exist without that theory, right? You know how I can tell you're baiting? Because there's no way you could possibly be that retarded.
