Snippets are still widely used, perhaps more widely used today than in the 
past, as the hardware has become faster and faster.

Way back when I was in app dev, there was a popular programming technique 
called data driven programming.  You would take chunks of code specific to the 
user or app module and store the code in a database.  Then every time for that 
user or app module the code would be read from the database and executed.  Code 
meets data and data meets code.  Back then it made for very customizable 
software but you paid for it on the execution side.

Yes, code and data is all about context.  Code can be considered data if you 
take it out of the context where it can be run.  If data cannot be executed, it 
is not code.
