Comment when we have a president who can code ... (Score 2) 212
(Talking about the USA) We'll know then coding is a general purpose skill. Plenty of people in their 50s now have been exposed to coding in school (including myself).

It would be interesting to poll Congress, 535 40-somethings to 70-somethings, of how many of them could right some sort of program.
