I really love the conclusion but programming is not hard: can be boring for some task or project but most of the time is exciting, fun and challenging. I am programming since the 80 and manage teams since the middle of 90 and on my experience on a team if some programmer found the task 'hard' my suggestion is that he change his job.
Yup, I agree with saying that programming is fun and challenging. I think that's the reason why I love it so much: it just challenges me to think and solve problems in creative (and sometimes unorthodox) ways.
However, I can't deny the fact that programming is indeed "hard". The amount of things we have to worry about every day is astonishing (as proven by the many facets of programming I mentioned).
From the outside looking in, programming is one of the most cryptic professions out there. To us, it may not be "hard", but it definitely is challenging (to the point that it is a difficult profession to be in if one can't handle the stress that comes with it).
