No.

[UPD]: Disambiguation: this holiday has no meaning to the ordinary Russians.

Not much (as any other professional day - reclamation expert's day, railwayman's day, etc), but we're working on it!

Just to clarify: it's an official Programmer's Day today in Russia, but it's not a day off. There are all kinds of X's Day-s for many values of X there.
