Serious question for anyone leasing their school's CS club/professional organization, why not lead the movement to make CS great again? Right now, CS majors have to compete with prison slave labor, state-sponsored job stealers, & AI vibe coder junkies

I’d like to respectfully rebuttal this point. As someone who runs a CS professional organization on campus, I can tell you your job is not being taken by AI vibe coders. I can also tell you that CS is greater than it’s ever been, given the massive strides in the field, just not software engineering (which apparently are used interchangeably at this point). Strive for improving problem solving, and these people can’t compete

Especially the thing about SWE being used interchangeably. Also I feel like a lot of the issue is this idea of working for FAANG as the pinnacle of post grad success. A lot of what inspired me to pursue CS was smaller tech entrepreneurs with really insane and innovative companies, not a job at Google.

> CS is greater that is ever been CS grads are bound to be unemployed because of a lie and professional organizations denying reality
