请大家评价CS的各方向在美的就业情况和职业前景

准备申请CS master.
问问， 以下CS方向在美国的就业情况和职业前景如何呢？有经验的同学能各方向点评一下吗？谢谢！
- machine learning and data intensive computing,
- speech and language processing
- bioinformatics
- robotics and computer vision
- computer security
- systems
- theory and programming languages

I have studied some courses in applied mathematics and statistics before.
Do machine learning and data intensive computing, speech and language processing, robotics and computer vision, and bioinformatics have good future for finding a
good job?

I am also fascinated by theory and programming languages, since I am
interested in learning about algorithms (general, optimization, randomized algorithms) and
analysis of algorithm complexity, and how to pick up a new programming
languages quickly.

I don't know what system is about, so let me guess:
- database is helpful for data mining,
- operating system will help me deepen my CS knowledge and may be
easier to help me find a job?
- internet/network is the least familiar area to me, but mobile computing
seems to be the hottest one in the job market?

computer security, I guess, may not have many employers who can sponsor H1B
for international students?

It seems that there is something related in Warald's blog.

W大的文章很有用
侧重在通用的程序员的职位
似乎对于machine learning, NLP, computer vision, bioinformatics等相对于通用程序员的比较提及很少。

这种职位一般都要PhD。对于绝大多数人来说，2年时间顶多把这些东西学个皮毛

这种职位一般不要master的啊？

不敢说100%没有，即使有估计都是CMU LTI这种program出来的人能搞到。ML、NLP、CV之类的对数学要求很高。对绝大多数人来说，2年光上课估计连这些东西书上的东西都没搞清楚。
