Right, because computer programming (unlike computer science!) does not take a genius.
It is, basically, a routine work.
Unfortunately, there is a tendency to say the same about fundamental science, for example here: http://www.slate.com/articles/health_and_science/science/2017/10/the_nobel_prize_does_science_a_serious_disservice.html http://www.slate.com/articles/health_and_science/science/201... and here : https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/sep/30/we-hail-individual-geniuses-success-in-science-collaboration-nobel-prize https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/sep/30/we-hai...
This worries me. Without outstanding contributions from individuals, science will turn into waste of human resources. We absolutely need to protect and care about our elites !
