Nothing wrong with Philosophy degrees...

If you can read Hegel and understand what he's on about, you can read any barely passable technical documentation in existence and get a feel for the framework.

If you can read the Critique of Pure Reason and understand the bridge-building that Kant tried to do between rationalism and empiricism, then you can understand a lot about legacy code and stuff that has been done on top of it...

There's a lot of Philosophy graduates who do great stuff in IT...
