Yeah, agreed. I've got a load of what Americans would call "liberal arts" under my belt and do tech for non-profits. If you like cars, study automotive design

If you like cars, study automotive design and go work there. Ditto anything really.
Domain knowledge is a real differentiator.
- alephnerd 2y agoThe CS+X model that CMU, Stanford and UIUC pioneered is the best middle ground imo. You need both technical AND "liberal arts" skills as interdisciplinary study is a fundamental part of CS (and a major reason the field even became a thing - look at the work Turing, Simons, etc did). Tbf I did a double major in CS and Government years ago so I have my biases.
