I spotted the same comment and chuckled. Programming is never boring because it is inherently tied to the challenge itself: programming occurs at the very bleeding edge of new research and new challenges because. Everything that has already been solved for good has been implemented, so reuse or rewriting it is trivial. Programming is about turning an open question into an automated answer which moves the bleeding edge further each time. In my experience, programming only gets more and more interesting because as we crack the challenges they level up all the time. I'm working on way more interesting, harder, and complex problems than what I was 10-15 years ago. The problem domain levels up, too.
