It would be great if we could flag your complaint as ridiculously lame.

An interesting interview with Bjarne that makes me wonder why we expect programmers to be both great programmers AND understand the details of the business? No wonder even good programmers have trouble coding business logic into systems. Technology to bring the business users into the process of creating and, crucially, of maintaining the logic in these systems is needed not complaints about programmers.
