It takes willpower to do something different and raise above the “operational”/“manual typing” level; I can’t see how that’s laziness. Long-term thinking isn’t associated with “laziness” either afaik.
Fixing problems through programming is all about thinking, not typing. If you try to fix something merely by typing, you’re avoiding the main work we’re supposed to do. Otherwise, why even have computers?
- eyelidlessness 5y agoThis is 99% my point, the only difference I was trying to introduce was that in my initial foray into programming I wasn’t actually a programmer. I didn’t have those insights. I was actually just learning how to make machines let me type less. I had no idea what that impulse would open up for me.
