I don't think so, from the FAQ:

    You should only ask practical, answerable questions based on actual
    problems that you face. Chatty, open-ended questions diminish the 
    usefulness of our site and push other questions off the front page.

Programmers is simply for less focused on code, more conceptual questions.
