Convince me. Why should I leave the humanities & go into software engineering if I want to focus on how people think & feel?https://twitter.com/Ragnarork/status/894487396624072704 …

Yes. Then the question is where do the differences in interest come from. So much on a monday morning.
-
Please note that I agree that interest should be the primary deciding factor. At not point I'm forcing anyone to choose a specific path.
-
Right. I wasn't implying that, if it appeared so, I apologize.
-
My point (I think) is that there should be no barriers for any interest (and we're disagreeing with
@HPluckrose on those or if they exist). -
I doubt the existence of hard barriers. Soft ones like stereotypes are easy to overcome and we shouldn't be taught to conform to those.
-
A hard barrier would be something that legally stops you from hiring someone based on something that is not about their qualifications.

why in this debate about interest nobody mentions motivation? is not just be interested in things is wanting to endure the training to do it
-
There are so many factors for choosing a career path. This may be relevant for work hours, too. Some jobs require inconvenient work hours.
-
How many people want to become bakers and get up at 2am every night? Any shift or standby job has bad work hours, also the service industry.
-
even if you love to bake cakes...you also have to be "interested" in the entire package not just the result and the prestige.
-
Exactly. Nothing comes without negative sides. You gotta figure out if the downsides are worth the upsides and decide if it's right for you.
