the only reason one should be a computer toucher is to control their own computing experience and make fun little games for personal usage and things. learning about computer "science" is a waste of time if you arent actually applying it (because it sure doesn't help you understand the world and its creatures) and especially if youre selling out your services as a codemonkey

@georgia Computer science is a very interesting and beautiful field of mathematics and desecrating it by using your knowledge to be a codemonkey increasing shareholder value earns a thousand lifetimes in Samsara's asscrack

@scathach while computer science enables one to think in new ways (https://www.jsoftware.com/papers/tot.html a long time ago i read this essay), computer scientists are very fond of applying their science onto reality itself. thus you get computer touchers saying things like that God is describable by an algorithm. im not making that up, an atheist who views the world as essentially nothing more than information on fedi said that.
