- tekla 3y agoNo? Web Dev and Com Sci are incredibly different topics.
- EchoChamberMan 3y agoHe said they are a venn diagram with no overlap. I feel like that fact they both use computer programming negates that argument.
- tekla 3y agoThe overlap is minimal. 99.99% of web dev requires no computing, no science, no math.
- legostormtroopr 3y agoYes. Web developers never tackle with caching, database query optimisation, protocol development, or data modelling. Just HTML and CSS and nothing else.
- binary132 3y agoComputer programming doesn’t mean computer science.

- EchoChamberMan 3y agoGood thing I said comp sci includes programming, and not the other way around. Feel free to enlighten us as to what comp sci and Web dev are, and why they share nothing in common. Please.
- binary132 3y agoScience is where you measure, analyze, and develop theories. Computer science in particular is about the design of algorithms and systems for their implementation, such as compilers and interpreters. Programming is a means of operating computer systems. Sometimes you have to operate computers to do computer science, but not always (for example algorithm design is very mathematical.) there is meaningful overlap, certainly and also, not all programming is science, certainly
