I used to think that Coding is really the new literacy 'cos of all the things it makes us adapt to, say thinking logically, understanding how to design the programs and at the same time there is this immense room for innovation.
And recently, I have been exploring the various tools built in and Clojure and web technologies. Oe such tool is Light Table which is the inspiration for tools like Juno IDE for Julia language.
So, I wanted to read more about what's keeping the inventor of this tool busy these days. Went over to his blog and came across this wonderful post which caught my attention. The blog post deals with "What we hope to achieve with programming" and "Approaching Complex Problem". I have to say that my views have been enriched by this post and I have come to realize that Coding, in and of itself is One of the ways of learning how to approach Complex Systems Design.
For this post, I'd really recommend that you go through this Blog Post by Chris Granger and really think about it 'cos, to me atleast, it seems to say alot in terms of what truly is a uniquely Human ability!
I find that my thought on this topic are evolving and it'd be sometime before I am able to form this thought-tread into words. My intuition tells me that it's really something that's gonna resonate a lot in coming posts.
