02/20/2024, 1:22 PMthe resistance to programming was because of bad tools or that the manual alternatives were sufficientI think there were a lot of factors that overlapped -- certainly many workplace systems were literal translations of existing paper forms and offered little in the way of opportunity, but I'd think that the novelty was as much of a factor. It's a huge leap to start thinking computationally. I remember my wife taking a required Excel class when getting her Masters' in Education in the 90s and watching her use a pocket calculator on the desk to sum a column instead of using
=SUM(A1..A10)
and (even more) her resistance to approaching the problem in this way.Chris G
