This is _the_ reason I'm picking up coding again after a 7 year hiatus. I know instinctively that without it, I will never be able to understand the mindset and workflow and needs of coders, which is essential when working with a team of hackers.

I despise the notion of the manager without technical experience in the field and I'm desperate to avoid becoming one in the future. We're living in a software dominated world, and everyone who's going to be involved in a company's strategic decision making should be conscious of how programming works, what it can do, and what it can't do.
