The best ones had BS in math (mostly pure math not applied).
The second best ones had physics degrees (from BS to PHD).
The WORST ones BY FAR had PHD in CS (typically AI/ML focused), absolutely atrocious coders and engineers.
- viraptor 3y agoUsual comment, but keep in mind that CS degrees are not expected to produce good coders. Especially ML PhD is as related to software engineering, as material science specialising in plastic is related to installing PVC plumbing.
