Ask HN: Computer science heavy fields
I am a fullstack web developer. I write build and manage servers in python, or javascript. I write frontends with any of a host of frameworks. I setup logging, and monitors, and CI/CD pipelines.
I slowly refine the process and the product, a little each day.
I have a degree in engineering and I rarely if ever use what I learned. Everything I use is backed by core CS, but us consumers needn't even really know about that. Is the majority of web development like this? Or am I caught in an anomaly?
On top of that, these web-apps we put up are so fragile. Hot one year, archived the next. What fields are more long lasting? Where is the important work being done?
..please don't say blockchain. GPU and everything related. 3D graphics now has a very bright future and is not easy!
