Programming, as in manually typing the code, is a means to an end. While I do enjoy coding, building things is what was rewarding, not actually laying down brick after brick after brick after brick. I've done that for 10+ years. The fact that I don't have to do that anymore is a relief that cannot be overstated. I only have to check on the code that The Ideal Intern produces while I focus on what actually matters, and that is: Building The Thing. It's all about how you use it and how careful you are with it, and the fact that today there are people IN THE FIELD that still question this baffles me.
