My Computer Science friends are making me feel insecure because I'm in Math and Stats. They say "haha your job is gonna be done by a 13 year old writing a script."

I want to be a Statistician. Is this true? Please give me /sci/ memes to validate my educational choices.

they're bullshitting you

that being said, if you want to be an actuary (which is what I assume you're studying to be) then you have a very tough road ahead. You won't be automated. People who think actuaries are going to be automated typically aren't actuaries.

Entry level data anAlys in my area is starting 65k.

Entry level back end cs jobs pay 50k

Is super easy to pick up python and sql and apply math to it. It's not easy blindly code to spec something you don't understand the motivation behind.

At least your ignorance on the subject is excusable. What the fuck is their issue?

>implying statmonkeys can program in a real language such as C++, mastering the different programming paradigms and efficient practices that allow the development of fast and lightweight software
Inputting lab data in MATLAB isn't programming, kiddo. Also, entry-level salaries are irrelevant unless you "just want to make vidya."

Actuaries won't be automated, but will nearly as many be needed now that pension plans have pretty much gone extinct?

If you want to make money, go back to school and get your doctorates degree, then pioneer on a theory and prove it, creating a new avenue for young people to follow will make you a GOD! in the field. So stop following and become a Leader. Your too old to be a follower.
