RE: tldr.nettime.org/@tante/116074

Some of this resonates, but maybe code wizard is not the correct lens?

For ~50 years, programmer meant β€œwrites code”. But, maybe it should have meant "solves problems".

In other words: companies don't pay programmers high salaries to write code, they pay them to solve business problems. Sometimes that means you don't write any code at all and fix a process problem. Other times, code is the solution.

The code is not the valuable artifact, though.
