@hailey@hails.org Yes. I like to say that Computer Science is a research field trying desperately to grow up into a proper trade skill. People working in computer science could be better off if we had more shared norms, consistently recommended practices, and formal solutions supporting progression and mentorship.

@hailey@hails.org Aaaakshully... CompSci is INTENDED to turn out new Shanons, Knuth's and Torvald's Lots of folks do CompSci because they want to be codemonkeys, this is where your criticism is valid.
