‘I have 8 years of experience, and I’m not finding a job’: Computer programmers complain their degree isn’t the cash cow it once was, giving humanities folks schadenfreude

The feud between STEM kids and humanities kids is long and storied. In a society where you’re made to feel you’re either one or the other at a very young age, the division becomes as real as cat people vs dog people. And both sides have grievances.

‘STEM majors when people don’t immediately consider them superior’: Math student gets ‘ew’ed on dating app for mentioning math, gets roasted for being upset

In college, you hear the same thing about your major repeatedly. Theatre majors get used to jabs about having to wait tables postgrad, and business majors have heard jokes about their classes being stupidly easy more than they can even count.
