Where do you wire those AI employees' salaries? Same place as the computers' salaries I guess

He is perfect for the job. His intelligence is entirely artificial.

Straight from the break room, thanks to Dave

A program with no side effects whatsoever would be utterly useless. That being said, I see the appeal of functional languages containing side effects in a few simple IO patterns.

Mathematicians sure are tired of checking for div by 0 for hundreds of years now. Yet they know better than to give in to their primal urges, bc they know what havoc any workaround will wreck in the long run. So do your homework. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.

A BSc prepares you for any kind of specialization, including scientific programming and computer graphics. (Want to render fur or smoke? That's differential equations.) Bear in mind that many of your fellow students don't know yet what they will specialize in, or even don't grasp all the options. Exposing you to higher math shows you what those options can be. It's good to know what else is out there, because you will certainly get in touch with other fields through collaborations or a career change. If on the other hand you even have trouble with algebra (which I count as beyond long division), CS as a whole may not be the right thing for you.
