Actually I think it is funny to hear that, like there is something wrong with typing something to a computer to tell it to do something. Leaving aside the pedantics of binary, typing something to a computer to tell it to do something is not that different than order dinner in a French restaurant...in French. Or discussing something with a Karate instructor in Japanese. IOW there is nothing wrong with that and a whole lot right with it. Is it for everyone? No of course not but there is indeed nothing wrong with typing something to a computer to tell it to do something. People who look at it like it is some kind of exotic skill are the ones who are funny...to me, having to click on things to get a computer is about as non-intuitive as one can get. To apply this to the French restaurant, it would be like grunting and pointing at things on the menu as if you could not read it...
