I don't really think you're being fair to him. He had several good points, I'm a programmer myself, of both robots and computers, and that's anything but trivial. You try to weed through a bunch of files of source code and track everything, and if it's designed badly it will crash. Software engineering is every bit as much engineering as mechanical.

I'm a FIRST relic of sorts, I remember when we used PBASIC and we got CH Flightsticks in the KoP. In my day we didn't have motorized carts, we pushed our robots uphill, both ways! (Houston 2003!)
