    Software by Rob : Computer Science Enrollment is Going Down, and Taking Software Jobs With It

    Quoted: "... [the] human side of the equation is not understood to people outside the field ... they think we're all Monty Python quoting, Star Trek loving, Cheetos eating, caffeine addicted, girlfriendless freaks ... when in fact most CS people barely eat any Cheetos."

      Funny. Pants blows away the stereotype.

      what? Back at UW, I did see a lot of those assclowns from the foreign lands who were really smart(probably just a better K-12 education) and was able to get the grades easy... but didn't care for computers. Probably they heard from people it makes good money. They ultimately ended up getting another degree such as law or medicine. Kind of sad, because they took the seat of someone who might of really wanted it. They should do interviews for CS, that might get the passionate people in. But I guess the numbers make the school look good.
