<p>^Again though, we are discussing two different things. You are discussing practicality for tech-related careers. I am discussing practicality for one’s entire life, which includes after retirement, after you get home from your daily job, as well as the possibility of (gasp!) a non-tech job. If you needed to survive for five days on the street would you rather know how to play the sax or how to code in python?</p>
