Why do we hate CS degrees again?

Because everyone here has a code camp degree and all they know is how to do basic algorithms in Python. That's the same reason people here hate C++.

/g/ is mostly freshman CS majors (at best.) Thus the obsession with cool meme languages like Haskell and their general comfort with Java.
Because I, as a biology major, can code, use algos, and design software better than most of the comp sci majors that have come through our office.

They're meaningless, yet almost universally required. No programming job requires the theoretical stuff they teach in college; someone who spent six months learning how to code and then 3.5 years learning on the job will be orders of magnitude more productive than someone who spent 4 years in college learning irrelevant garbage.

People don't get that CS is not programming

Because 2/3 people with CS majors are unemployed. It's literally a meme major.

99% of people majoring in CS are there so they can get a programming job. 90% of programming jobs only hire people with CS.
It's maddening. They should be teaching software engineering skills at trade schools and companies should be hiring from there!
Can you get anywhere with a Software Engineering degree?

welfare office maybe

Because, obviously, all degrees are memes. Every. Single. One. A majority of /g/ would totally have one of those high-paying, high-demand positions if they didn't require them to go places and learn how to do things in a group requirement. It's all a scam to keep the normies working and the /g/entoomen in their perverbial basements.
/g/oons take CS in uni but avoid taking difficult math/stats courses. They then end up w/ an easily replaceable skill set and no job prospects which they blame on the degree, because it's easier to blame the degree than it is to blame oneself.
