This isn't my recollection of it at all. HTML allowed the layman to code, but many people with liberal arts degrees have taught themselves to code. It isn't work that requires genius or inspiration, or anything other than a good memory and a modicum of hard work to learn it.
There's a bit of a tension now, since people have seen that in the post-boom economy, programmers are glorified blue collar labor in all but a few elite posts. I think it's important to remember a programmer is just someone who learned to write code. --- Katie Albers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Let me see...how do I put this politely...If we'd been adhering to > this logic in 1993, you'd be out of a job. http://technical-writing.dionysius.com/ technical writing | consulting | development ____________________________________________________________________________________ Tonight's top picks.
