Programming is beautiful and interesting and filled with creative folks who want to express themselves. That's what I see in programming.
Should every creative and expressive person be on a team writing code, hell no - we've seen what they produce and it's not something you ship to people.
The individual themselves though, their ideas and their input and their drive and passion. I enjoy that company and when we gel as a team.
Programming is beautiful.

It can be. But corporate programming too often is... well, it's often not as bad as the article said, but it's somewhat less than beautiful.
I'm not just a programmer, I'm an artist in other media. I play music very deeply. It's just as full of suffering.
