The "limits of humans" I was referring to were things like:

  • How long can you push a deadline before someone starts to get really mad
  • How many dark patterns you can cram into an app before the users stop using it
  • The extremes of human stupidity

..none of which would be relevant for most people working in back-end, which would be most people that take compsci.

I would hate to go to a compsci study and learn management instead. It's not what I signed up for.

University also shouldn't just be a job training program.
