Can't agree more with this. I ended up double-majoring Philosophy and it was fantastic and has surprisingly helped several times in my career

I still honestly believe coding should be a requirement in all philosophy courses. A system for layout out logical structures efficiently was something philosophy to this day sorely lacks, with formal logic being practically unreadable. And computer science has literally spent 50 years working on how to do that well.
I actually ended up getting to teach a 20 minute segment on neural networks to my fellow philosophy students during a senior seminar on phenomenology, was great fun
