Pehaps you will forgive me if I suggest this is a bit of a show-off remark.
For those in the know, programming is indeed a trivial task for the most
part, in fact one might say that the dreadful trivialities involved make it
so difficult to do well. On the other hand, suggesting that it is dead easy
implies that those that cannot grasp the arcane principles required are a
bit dim. I think programing at present is highly counter-intuitive. One day
we will learn how to make computers work properly, but we've only just
started.

It takes a certain mentality to enjoy this kind of stuff.

I can't fault you on this, top community spirit !
