Everyone knows you go for computer science, and study as much electrical engineering you require for your future goals in your own time.
Why would you actually take EE? EE is the grandfather of CS, and is therefore slowing, obviously as it has been superseded.
You're an idiot. That's like dating the grandmother, because you think her granddaughter lacks enough "experience points".

I suppose we could break out something like Numero and compare the too, but I'm still certain that the US would outstrip you, several times over.
Also, I don't know if you knew this or not, but Chile's economy isn't separate from the rest of the world and economic climates external from Chile would impact it. Even North Korea is impacted by such things as international tariffs.
