In the next 5-20 years, I think "programming and IOT without screens" will allow pretty much anyone to do a lot of useful stuff on the computer without actually being present at one, or knowing the exact technical syntax for how to do it. "Please analyze the traffic from Y and let me know if there's any anomalous traffic regarding ISIS" --anyone "Please start a server on local port 8080 from my computer and serve all of my birthday pictures from when I was 10 until 20, and then download the files from my phone and save it into a new album called 'Birthday Teens'" --anyone who knows what a server is "Please transfer the files from my computer in directory X to my phone in a new album with the same name as X" --anyone "Please send a request to bing for the first 50 pages of cat images, and save the files into Y directory, then open the first image" --anyone "Please Open up Steam and start up Skyrim" --anyone "After that, send a message to Henry and ask him if we wants to play again" --anyone "Please get me a list of all of the processes about mongo" --anyone who knows what a computer is "Please close the windows or tabs on reddit" --anyone "Please open up my school portal email" --anyone Thinking things into existence.
