@hexaheximal @blainsmith agreed, personally I've never felt artistic but writing code and building things makes me feel creative with a fluency that I suspect an artist feels when creating a painting.

@joew @blainsmith I think the best way to put it is that code (at least when complex enough) tells a story and really shows the ideas the author(s) had in mind. It may _appear_ entirely functional on the surface, but there is deeper meaning that gets often overlooked.
