    IT Brew[^]:

    In an attempt to improve workflow between programmers and other departments, some companies bring IT teams, security staff, and even customer-service reps into the coding process.

    Because we all know many coders have a lot of empathy

    Hopefully this link works - it does a silly Cloudflare check, but it works for me in multiple browsers.

      With that mix, I understand the need for the security staff. :)

          I'm a hardcore advocate of such programs and things, but truly not because of the self-interest of empathetic understanding, that's just a bonus. It helps just about anyone in any role do a better job at it because there are so few jobs anymore that don't somehow involve a computer somewhere. I think GE's CEO (and others, who've said/attempted similar) generally have it right.

          every new hire at the 305,000-person company will learn to code. “It doesn't matter whether you are in sales, finance or operations,” he wrote on LinkedIn on Aug. 4. “You may not end up being a programmer, but you will know how to code

          Especially now moving towards AI eliminating supplementing and multiplying the need for programmers by lowering the bar... It will be even more important that everyone starts to grok just wtf is going on with all these 1's and 0's that literally impact so many facets of so many lives on the planet every day.

            Totally agree with your sentiment. But some employees will fail to learn how to code, it's inevitable.

            The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.
