In fact, most high end University Computer Science departments do not at any point teach a coding language. Coding languages are taught, in Canada, at Community Colleges and such.
Computer Science is all about developing, perfecting, and discovering the algorithms that are then transcribed to computer code by the junior IT technicians (code junkies). Coders are a dime a dozen. It is the Computer Systems Designers, project architects, and project developers that make the big money.
A coder can only make good money if they have mastered a computer language that is not very common, like Kubernetes, [Kubernetes,] (https://kubernetes.io/) And you will not learn that from a 'Kubernetes-for-Dummies book borrowed from the library,
Kubernetes is not a programming language. It’s a program written in a programming language called Go. Working with Kubernetes involves writing in a data serialisation language called YAML but YAML is not a programming language (IIRC) because it’s not Turing complete.
Kubernetes is definitely not a programming language. It is not a program. it is a complete system. It is an approach, a method, a tool, a way to organize, a way to think about tasks,
Kubernetes produces yaml using AI techniques from extremely complex procedures. The goal of Kubernetes is to generate the yaml that will allow a teenager to port the entire NASA launch operation system onto the device of her choice so her technophobe brother can completely operate the ISS including all resupply launches and docking procedures from her smart phone.
I feel like I need to point out, just in case anyone is reading this and falling for the smug tone, that the entire content of both these messages is embarrassing bullshit. I have no idea what drives any human to teach others their uneducated guess on topics and dress it up to make it look like they are a mr knowledge professional. When I think about it, it’s not even passable as a troll joke, it’s just feeble attempts to seem relevant… which is kinda sad. Hope you find human connection soon. I don’t imagine you want my advice now, but try to be more honest to the world, you will be automatically more honest to yourself then.
Most of what is written about Computer science by computer scientists is embarrassing bullshit to the uninitiated. But the ones that usually refer to it as bullshit are the ones that have absolutely no idea what the entire field is about, not even an inkling of how the resident gurus think, nor even of what is being talked about. It is the ones who call it ‘bullshit’ that are the ones trying to pretend they understand in depth what it is all about. You do not want us to be honest, you want us to speak in terms that you might have a chance of understanding. Unfortunately, the language of Computer Science, like science in general, has to be absolutely precise so as to not be misinterpreted. It can not be ‘dummed down’ without losing much of its utility to other scientists.
I could have said "Kubernetes defines a set of building blocks (“primitives”) that collectively provide mechanisms that deploy, maintain, and scale applications based on CPU, memory[29] or custom metrics.[30] Kubernetes is loosely coupled and extensible to meet the needs of different workloads. The internal components as well as extensions and containers that run on Kubernetes rely on the Kubernetes API.[31][32]
"The platform exerts its control over compute and storage resources by defining resources as objects, which can then be managed as such.
“Kubernetes follows the primary/replica architecture. The components of Kubernetes can be divided into those that manage an individual node and those that are part of the control plane.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kubernetes
But that is just a very fancy way of saying that Kubernetes developers look at a very complex computing environment consisting of many hardware vendors, several operating systems, several architectures, (some incomparable) but one common application outcome, and integrating them all together into one centrally controlled and managed interface using a common instruction set and command structure…
I should clarify that ‘YAML’ is used facetiously and generically to refer to the concept of ‘yet another markup language’ as an allegory, without specifically meaning Kubernetes produces the true implementation of ‘YAML’ the formal system. Maybe we should coin a new term ‘YAMLized’. That is, 'reduced to ‘yet another markup language’.
Computer Science is not learning to code.

Thank you for pointing out that CS <> programming.
CS is mostly math, cryptography, signal processing, image processing, information theory, data analysis/storage/transformation, etc.
