Software development is still in its infancy. It will slow down eventually and stabilize.
The last two decades were a madness of inventions, with computing doubling almost every 3 year, new languages and paradigm invented, new tools, the internet, the web, phones, giant displays, small displays with touch. We surely won't get that much change in the next two decades.

- megaman22 9y agoPeople have been beating this drum as long as I can remember. Nobody wants to have to have those pesky engineers around to actually do the work - they want to drag and drop some components around, provide an incredibly fuzzy description of what it should do, wave their finger in the air, and voila, working software materializes. This is one of those "Next year, in Jerusalem" ideas that is perpetually 20 years away from reality.
