alt Hacker NewsI have no reason to believe that you aren't motivated mostly by curiosity and interest, but the mass of CS undergrads are primarily driven by economic incentives.

The ones I knew that were only driven by money all dropped out or changed majors.

This is pretty easy to interview for, if that is something your company cares for during the hiring process.
Feels like CS used to be for nerds who wanted to understand how computers work, and then it became much more popular because there were good career opportunities.
Maybe with AI it will go back to "CS for nerds", and those nerds will be the ones landing the jobs that require actual understanding?
Genuinely wondering.
