Literally don’t know anyone who uses Windows for dev work these days, unless developing software for Windows only.
It’s all Linux and MacOS because nobody wants to deal with Windows. 90% of software being developed is in the browser anyway and the backend stuff is nearly always Linux servers.

Yes because the world is run by devs…
Companies run windows for 90% of their shit. The rest is linux/macos.
No where in this entire thread was anyone talking about dev work only.

Article is literally about unemployed comp sci grads. Why would you get a comp sci degree for admin work? They’re distinctly unrelated and there are programs that teach you exactly the things you mentioned, for people who want to get into that line of work.

Comp sci is not just dev work, it’s literally the catch all for all things that deal with, well computers/tech.
Takes 2 seconds to google what comp sci majors fall into. It’s a broad range of fields.

These days it might as well be a business degree.

Computer science is mostly theory. Think algorithms and data structures, not Windows-specific software and settings. What you’re talking about is IT, though some universities don’t separate them properly.
