Well, I'm a programmer, though these days they've got me doing so much project management crap that I hardly have time for it anymore.
I've taught myself Visual Basic, Perl, C++ and a few others over the years. Once you learn one or two, they're all pretty much alike in most ways. The object oriented stuff and data structures were a bit different for an old procedure language coder, but even those concepts eventually fell before my massive intellect (uh, yeah, riiiight).
I think programmers are drawn to SE4 like a moth to the flame. I love programming because you get to build something neat and solve problems. SE4 offers that in spades. And with the data files thrown in so you can mod away?? Well, it's Nirvana! (no, no, not Teen Spirit). Just wait until you see my new race and shipset.
