Learning to code will eventually be as useful as learning Ancient Greek
- al2o3cr 9y agoThe need for humans to code will gradually disappear for all but the most specialized situations. Platforms will enable humans to describe in natural spoken or written language what they’d like computers to accomplish. The coding will occur behind the computational scenes. We won’t code so much as direct and request LOL, somebody at QZ got ahold of a '90s-era CASE brochure.
- djbelieny 9y agoSeriously ??? What is coding if not directing and requesting ? Take it from someone who's been doing it for the past 25 years, languages and techniques will change like they have been changing from the inception of the computer but learning to code is not the same as learning a computer language. It's much more than that, it's understanding real world problems and translating it into processes, algorithms, data models. Coding will never be ancient greek. Coding in XYZ language might, though.
