Programmers in the field have little use for computer science in general. You don't need to know anything about cyclomatic complexity when assembling a shiny javascript widget.
Until you do, of course. At which point it's clear you should've known about it years ago.
- wernercd 6y agocyclomatic complexity and computer science isn't history. Not sure where the disconnect is because at no point have I said you shouldn't learn how to do your job correctly - and understanding Big O, SOLID, YANGI, etc are all important to know... but have nothing to do with history. So again... history isn't needed to be a good engineer. And being a good engineer and KISS programming is possible without understanding 100 years of history.
