I have a B.A. in History (Pre-industrial Europe and Far East, and post-WWII American Foreign Policy) degree from UC Davis, and I ended up full-stack programming for the last 12 years. I use those History skills daily from writing documentation, synthesizing concepts into a coherent work, and figuring out the intent of the original coder. My History degree is definitely not useless.

>I use those History skills daily from writing documentation, synthesizing concepts into a coherent work, and figuring out the intent of the original coder. That’s simply laughable.

  That's just insulting and has no place here.

That sounds like a bundle of fun. I bet you really enjoyed undergrad!
