Then you don't understand the nature of programming - which is no 
more or less complex than instructing a person who takes things 
very, very literally, who takes no initiative himself, and who 
has absolutely zero experience of anything in the real world.
Have you ever tried to train someone like that? I have.

Euphoria *is* easy, compared to other languages. It's the task that's 
hard. If you want something as easy as typing "make me a game", and  
poof!, there is is, then you need to wait for better technology. 
I predict that technology should be available in approximately 100 years.
