Does programming make you happy?
helveticaman: No.  I'm hoping it grows on me, but I've had a lot of shitty experiences so far, and not a lot to show for them.  Think spending six months trying to install Lisp on a mac, or spending 50 hours installing Linux on a PC.  SICP was also quite awful.  Finally, I have this nagging feeling of obligation to program.  So no, I wish I did, but I don't like programming.  I hope your mileage varies.
