Trans women are literally wizards, and they are going to be the ones to save us from Lord Voldemort (Trump). Remember to respect valid trans women because they are valid and deserve to exist

>A computational process is indeed much like a sorcerer's idea of a spirit. It cannot be seen or touched. It is not composed of matter at all. However, it is very real. It can perform intellectual work. It can answer questions. It can affect the world by disbursing money at a bank or by controlling a robot arm in a factory. The programs we use to conjure processes are like a sorcerer's spells. They are carefully composed from symbolic expressions in arcane and esoteric programming languages that prescribe the tasks we want our processes to perform.

Sometimes practicing law feels a bit like wizardry in a sense. You say the right magic incantations and large heaps of gold move around. Wouldn't recommend it though.

I don’t know if you knew this but in the Middle Ages people who practiced magic were often some sort of law clerk or had at least studied law They used to literally write grimoires and recite spells with law-speak to effectively negotiate with spirits. You can actually tells this from some grimoires if you read them today. They’re extremely specific. A lot of people don’t seem to know that the history of magic is closely tied to the history of religion and law.

Chemistry if you wanna be an alchemist type
Acting if you wanna do "magic"
Economics dueled with poly sci if you wanna be an evil dark magic type
Psychology with an emphasis in animal behavior, or agriculture with an emphasis on animal hospitality, for work with familiars.
Medicine or organic chemistry for potions.
