If you're commenting using code, yes. Many of you have slang as your definitions to words. When you look up the definition any type of format based language is code.
This reminds me that the more I learn about computers the more 'god like' the definition hacking moves to for me. to most people changing a background color for google.com with inspect element is hacking or brute forcing is hacking a password. All seems like manual labor to me now.

it's code, she did a code don't discourage her. dont forget to do the dew when you do code.
Everyone should learn it. One thing they all share is they love Jobs and he said if you can't learn to code you can't really prove you know how to think. https://hooktube.com/watch?v=5Z1gfgM7kzo
So remind them critical thinking is essential to reporting and no better way to increase their value than learning how tech is going to ultimately replace them from their next job also.
