Aristotle had a view of the good life as a middle path between
excesses of virtue and vice. I hope you are not offended (by
identifying with economics too strongly), if I tell you I share the
view of Varoufakis that economics is currently so drained of human
values it really requires a complete reboot. It must be tempered to
keep it on a middle path. If you choose to go "into Tech" in the way
you describe then studying computer science and politics might be of
benefit. Knowing what you're doing and why may avert the tragedy of
elevating models above the reality they are intended to help manage,
or becoming a tool of those with less than benevolent plans for
humanity.
