I don't think that programming is going to be a required skill like a lot of people here say it is. As much as I love programming and machines and computers, I don't think I want to be serviced in every area of my life by a machine. I don't think I'm alone in this sentiment. In the foreseeable future, there will be jobs for the non-tech-savvy folks.
When I read articles like this, I get the feeling that some people love programming and computers so much they get all giddy thinking that everybody will need to be programmers at some point. Don't get me wrong though, I do think that people who have the capacity to wield computers have a lot of power on their hands, but I think it's a bit of a stretch to think that everyone will need to be programmers eventually.
