This article strokes me the wrong way. If any of the things described in there were possible, why the hell would I be writing any code? I'm a lazy programmer for gods sake, and code I don't have to write is a win in my book.
Matter of fact, once I got past the point where the novelty of writing lots of code wore off, I'm spending most of my time trying to write less code.
That side step all these miracle solutions for bringing coding to the masses in one fell swoop and eliminating its tedium do is that "Hey, technically, if you draw pictures instead, it doesn't count as writing". Yes, technically true, totally useless. I personally believe that whoever comes up with this again and again deserves to be bludgeoned by a copy of "K&R The C Programming language", turned into a picture book. All 70,000 pages of of it, with the big glossy full-page, double-page foldout prints.
