I preferred not to make assumptions on the goals people have if all I see is a 
question accompanied with a few lines of code. What ever they are, I'm still 
hoping it's something they feel happy about once get around the problems 
they're facing during this time. And even though not everyone will be a 'real' 
programmer one day, it was the same during C64 era too, guess one could say it 
shouldn't do any harm to have some basic insight on the topic either.

Actually, many of the people I admire yet today, didn't make it to software 
industry. But having a background as a 'hobbyist programmer' still shows on 
their work.
