- ghostpepper 7y agoI interpreted this comment as saying that CS will always be a useful skill and will never be saturated so therefore pick CS as your major if you are passionate about it, without a fear that it will be saturated
- seanmcdirmid 7y agoThe CS market has definitely been saturated over the years, it has booms and busts just like any other hot field. The 80s in particular were very hard on programmers, not to mention the years after the dot com bust. Long term it seems fine, but just beware it can be a riskier if more rewarding choice.
- ken 7y agoThe question was about a career, not a major. It's not like "pre-med" or "pre-law". You don't need to decide this in high school.
