make sure the larger culture knows what it doesn't know A million times this. I am not sure if it is possible though. I fear that any programming training as part of basic education will only expand the number of people who feel entitled to code, because they've been exposed to it, and then commence to build absolute shit. That is already a big enough problem, with large-scale failures like the Target breaches or healthcare.gov.

> Target breaches That was plain stupidity and not a direct result of an exploit in software that was written. The malware used the default passwords on the embedded XP Payment software to gain root access and scrape the database. > healthcare.gov Although I tend to agree, I think this points more a flaw at the Government contract bid structure versus poorly developed code.
