[quote=Anonymous]My kiddo self taught himself Javascript in 3rd grade over summer from Khan. He follows all the latest tech announcements and is deeply interested in cloud, preparing for USACO etc in his freshman year. We both are Asians (engineers) started with CS and I went on to do my MBA and move into Strategy & planning and hubby went on to tech marketing. We both encouraged him to look at other fields such as economics and law, but he was firm in his career choice since he was 7-8. I believe no one knows what exactly future job market would look like. But I do know that CS knowledge will always be valuable whether you are analyzing large data sets for COVID resurgence in healthcare or as an economist predicting bond rates and recession. I almost think CS as building blocks of modern human civilization and has applicability and intersection in all fields. very much like learning Math and Language Arts[/quote]
