Reminded me of a post recently that suggested liberal arts majors are typically better coders. I felt pretty good about myself reading that one too until I got to the part where it was written by somebody with a liberal arts degree, and like this paper didn't really give any evidence to support the claim except for some clearly self-serving unfalsifiable opinions.

There's some interesting stuff in here if you like to visit this realm of thought but you could remove any reference to 'gifted' and you wouldn't lose any of it.
