Yes. And, by the way, "computer" was once the name of a profession, carried out by people.

Television programming? It’s a stretch, one might say a broad-casting of the term.

I remember telling my high school guidance counsellor I was planning on becoming a programmer. She looked at me, head tilted like a confused dog and asked what excited me about Event Programming (as in, planning and scheduling large in-person events).

That was the first time someone didn't understand what I did for work, and it was about 5 years before I started doing it.
