Automation is the how, but not the why. We automate things that have become trivial, so that we can do something more meaningful. It’s important to understand the functional value of programming (ie. automation), but what really inspires learning is the underlying purpose. What are we achieving through automation? What have we unlocked? That process of discovery is what’s most exciting, to me at least, about coding. It’s what I seek to learn.
