Conversations with my wife: programming

Here’s another bombshell from my wife:

If you use a computer and don’t understand it, you make yourself vulnerable.

In the same way you can’t be illiterate and have a full, it’s increasingly becoming true that you must know how to program.

Therefore our children will come to understand that in the same way that literacy is essential to democracy, We can’t have a free society until we are all programmers.

What do you think?
