My comment I left on the post: I guess it depends on your motivation. I don't program because I love creating complex data structures or innovative new algorithms, I program because I want to create innovative new applications that change how people live, think, work, learn, etc. I signed up for programming so I could change the world for the better in my own little way -- not improve how an electronic machine inputs and outputs binary input. But to each their own. It seems everyone likes to work at different levels of abstractions. I think we can both agree that those electric engineers are weird :)
