Re: What do you think about how easy theyre making programming?

I've been all about sharing everything I learn. I even post my source code that I write for industrial automation. If you care to look:

I even shared my electrical symbols addon for AutoCad for the whole world to download:

I encourge this because my purpose is to help people learn quicker and get the job done faster. I think you can still learn alot by seeing what others have done. That's how open source software got started. Everyone looks at what someone else has done, and makes it better. It's like stacking your man hours ontop of each other. You keep adding to the time that has already been spent to perfect the product. In this case, your robot automous mode.

But the points in here are vaild, it depends on what kind of a person you are.
Your either a Linus Torvalds or a Bill Gates... LOL ;-) no pun intended..

On a side note...I've been looking at this new software and I still haven't found this "scripting" yet anyway....bah....I am going to bed...

I've been able to complie and debug the new 2005 code and the 2005 Camera code, but no scripting for the kiddies in there yet...
