The future is fewer people writing code?
“50 years from now, I can’t imagine people programming as we do today. It just can’t be.&quot;<p>Dear writer, let me introduce you to FORTRAN, COBOL, LISP, or BASIC.
These are alive languages, all 50+ years old.<p>Coding didn&#x27;t change much. The languages, the methodologies, the ideas change, but the approach is the same, and whoever thinks this will soon (50 years is not _that_ far) changes, have never had to debug something nasty. Doing that with voice commands in my opinion is significantly harder compared to what we have now.<p>We will have tools, accessible, easy tools; Arduinos and Pis of the future; sure. But it will not replace, nor eliminate or reduce the amount of code written.
