Programming literacy in the future?
I’ve been doing some thinking about writing and computer programming. Many centuries ago, writing was only those educated in it. It was seen as something that had no practical use beyond the recording of… well… records.

As long as someone could work hard and take orders, he was set. Now though, it’s rather different.
