In the 1980s, home computers like the Sinclair Spectrum and Commodore 64 booted straight into a programming environment, often BASIC. Even if you just wanted to play games, you got some mandatory exposure to coding.
I think it would be great if there was a modern "console computer" like that, which let you code the instant you switched it on.
At the very least, I wish modern programming environments let you use graphics and draw right away without fumbling around with boilerplate, like a simple 10 LINE(1,1,10,10) :)
