I'm trying to empathise with them... I get why people become radicals of other kinds... but saying no music, no sex, live by the book, behead those who disagree... what part of that makes people think "I want to get into this, this sounds fun"?

The Arab world has valid grievances, which motivated 9-11 for example, but there's more to it than that.

I never would have expected CHUDs to be pulled to engineering TBH. Maybe coding, but not the rest of the engineering discipline.

That being said, I'm pretty sure the CHUDs in civil engineering are more rare.
