[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][ And there is a SERIOUS dearth of programmers with actual ability as opposed to kids that go for CS because they know it's an easy way to get a well paying job. OP's kid will be fine. May not get into Google/Microsoft from the word go, but once he has that first job, no one will care where his degree is from, if he is as OP described.[/quote] This. Lots of CS majors who can do web stuff with scripting languages. Those are not the best paying jobs, because too much supply not enough jobs. Coders who can do real-time embedded software in C for a POSIX API are always in shortage, and those jobs pay much better because of the shortage. [/quote]
