Interesting. The people we see with the best solutions in our company have either no degree or a degree completely outside of math, or computer science, in the arts, social sciences, or literature. They think completely outside the box, ask all the right questions, and demand systems that work with such glaring common sense as to puzzle the computer science people. These non-computer types typically find the straighest line between two points faster, and challenge the computer people time and again with incredibly great business sense. The computer people tend to succumb to innovation, rarely if ever producing on their own any new ideas. We'll take the artists any day!
