It's a good field but it's not for everyone. You definitely have to like it because it can get really difficult.
Really good prospects for those who stick with it though.
It is for said prospects that I ended up choosing it as a career. I constantly question that decision, to be honest. It's not what I truly wanted at the end of high school, but it was the only course available in my city I thought I could do well that wouldn't make me poor in the future...or so I was told. Buuuut I'm learning a ton and I like my colleagues and professors, so it's been a good experience.

I can't say I like it a lot either, but I think I can become decent in coding.
It has so demand that I could even migrate to somewhere else and make 10x of what I would make with a different job here, so if I didn't choose this I would always have regrets.

just some more insight on the subject of interesting jobs:
__________________ It's now very common to hear people say, 'I'm rather offended by that.' As if that gives them certain rights. It's actually nothing more... than a whine. 'I find that offensive.' It has no meaning; it has no purpose; it has no reason to be respected as a phrase. 'I am offended by that.' Well, so loving what - Stephen Fry.

Yeah, I too think people who genuinely like their jobs are extremely few.
Many can like the subject but the pressure and the fact that is a job now and not a hobby makes it not so enjoyable.
Miyazaki probably enjoys working on his projects now, but he basically can choose on what to work on and take his time.
the only reason russia did what it did in UK with the agent was because of Brexit. my 2 cents ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It does seem like a factor. Some have suggested it was to test the strength of the relationship between Britain and the rest of Europe now that the UK's elected to leave the union. The relationship is evidently still strong. Saying that, it's not as if this kind of thing hasn't happened before; there was the whole business with Alexander Litvinenko a while back.
David Icke, is an interesting character. Such a absurd point of view but quite believable, apart from the lizard people and other totally bullshit things. I don't know why but New World Order thing seems quite reasonable, although mostly it has been depicted in fiction and science fiction. There definitely are huge benefits to some people if this happens. And i dont feel that they wont try if they have the means. Lets hope we never face WWIII. People in the west have a lot of things to consider, and with the recent rise of populist govt. there is a high chance that they will try to jump to conclusion too early. I personally would not mind a world like EU. But would not like WWIII to make that happen.

David Icke's ideas are... entertaining, for sure. But I'd say that about a lot of conspiracy theorists. I often wonder if the people with the craziest ideas are genuine though, or if they're just playing a role.

Conspiracy theorists are, for the most part, simply ignorant. Educating themselves with the facts would end 99% of all conspiracies.
Crazy rubbish such as Flat Earth, 911 Truth, NASA faking the moon landings and the seriously dangerous anti-vaccine craze are mostly people with empty lives who are simply bored and want the world around them to be more interesting than it is. The flat-earth-anti-space travel tribe may also think these things because of their religious beliefs. I have encountered some desperately clouded minds in the discussions beneath certain YT videos.
The flag-wavers and leaders of these theories also probably know their ideas are tripe but they can make a very good living off them via books, videos and lectures. Deepak Chopra is a good example of this sort of person.
The answer is to educate yourself from reliable sources and broaden your horizon of experience.

while i agree with you, but in case of most political conspiracy theorist the ideas are put together in a way that seems reasonable enough given all the shadow characters and organizations working in our world. Are they true? i dont know, neither there is enough evidence that proves they are false

Didn't Alex Jone's lawyers claim that he is playing a persona?
Well, he is certainly entertaining enough..

I've heard that but I forget where. I can definitely believe it.
yeah very good trump do what your Israeli overlord says, now the thing that is left to do is start a war Iran using American people's money and make israel greatest country in earth. Great just great.

I like both, but IMO a book allows an author the time to go into more detail, using the mind's eye, than is possible to achieve in a 2-hour or less, graphic or live action movie.
