As a "businessperson" that does some light coding on the side for fun (mostly scientific programming), I really appreciate the author's argument. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find organizations that know how to make the most use out of those skills (outside of the start-up community, and even within the start-up community it's surprisingly rare to find job postings for BD folks that mention relevant/valuable coding skills).
