You can generally use CS as a springboard into most tech related fields. Where its most helpful is probably research and academia.
If programming is even remotely interesting for you, getting a low paying junior dev job will probably teach you more and you can use that as a springboard into more software dev, data, AI, cybersecurity, networking… As long as you are willing to learn on the job and push yourself forward.

memes@lemmy.world•VLC got to the moon before bitcoin or gamestop
141·5 days agoI wonder why…
VLC: a free and open source video player meant to be used by literally everyone.
Astronauts: a select few chosen people with little to no health problems, in top physical and mental form one could only dream of having.
I think the Simpsons were on to something when they sent Homer to space.
Gotta have cream with that pie.
If you talk on them like Aaron, then yes.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•POV: M$ releases a new VSCode version
21·12 days agoI hate the environment, that’s why I use vscode. After a long day outside, rolling coal on my 6x6 and littering out in nature, I come home and relax by turning on vscode and let it idle as I throw old tires in the fireplace. If you hate the environment like I do, use vscode.
Here’s the thing, sidewalks have a speed limit to ensure the safety of everyone on them. Scooters or bikes can go faster, yet get to share that space. Me being mad at these things on sidewalks is me being mad at the city planers not giving them their own lane. Take it from the cars, give them a portal and make it in another dimension, idgaf, get them to a safe speed or away from people walking at 5kmh.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Why are you crying, Windows user?
81·14 days agoMy unpopular opinion: free ram is useless ram. Go on, OS. Put evertyhing into ram. I have 64GB of it. Fill it the fuck up. I want to be able to open things blazingly fast, that’s why its there. The trick is leaving enough so new things can fit without waiting for cleanup. And windows isn’t bad at scaling its usage. Afaik, wIndows installation on 8GB will use less than the same installation when 16GB is available.
If you had unlimited ram, you’d be mad the OS was wasting time cleaning up behind itself.

World News@lemmy.world•Microsoft Set for Worst Quarter Since 2008English
1·15 days agoBut calling them an “AI stock” is insane considering “AI” is not their core business or even a profitable part of their business.
I suspect it is because MSFT is overvalued at the moment and the overvalued part is AI hype. Now that the AI bubble is decreasing, we see it reflected in MSFT. They’re not pure AI stock, but some part of it is, so I think the speculation is apt. So, if you’re an AI bro and a bit of a pussy and not 100% behind it, you can back Microsoft since they have other income streams to fall onto. If you’re hardcore, you buy OpenAI and lose everything when it goes down.
I found it extremely funny when people started asking for systemd replacements, of all things, after systemd added the ability to store a birth date.
