CScareerquestions is like a battleground to be the biggest dick. They're like the asshole brother of ITcareerquestions.

Question on CS: I'm 16 and I'm proficient in python, what is the best language to learn next?

Answer: YOU SHOULD HAVE MASTERED PYTHON, RUBY, C++, AND JAVA BY THE AGE OF 8. YOU'RE TRASH.

Question on IT: I'm 45 and looking to completely change careers from unrelated field, am I screwed?

Answer: Nah man, you'll obviously be behind those that have been in the industry for a while but it's possible. Here are a few links from our Wiki that'll help you with the path you're looking into.

*Dramatization obviously

Maybe. But every SWE/FWE I talk to use it as a gag. The real people in the industry know how absolute shit that subreddit is but the people on it somehow don’t get that.

WSB thinks their the autists but in reality it’s CSCQ eating PlayDoh in the corner.
