In this article Forbes talks about how programmers are basically the safest and smartest investment an entrepreneur can make, but now they are saying that investing the time to learn to program yourself is a waste of time?
I could understand if the headline and tone of the article was something like "could learning to program compliment your current skills?", but right off the bat they are attacking the idea of acquiring a new skill.
Does anyone really come out worse off if they miss a season of American Idol to learn programming instead?
