I had no idea people like that actually existed. Kinda like the stereotype of all tumblr users having bright purple hair and ranting obnoxiously about social justice, I thought it was just an exaggeration.
Also, foundations of computer science makes me think of learning a bit of python, basic datastructures, maybe learning the conventions for various uncommon editing programs, at a stretch. Not Learning How to Use a Computer.
At the very least, they shouldn't besmirch the all-holy name of compsci with that stuff. It's like calling algebra "Foundations of Vector Calculus" because it's math and they both deal with lines.
