I agree so much. When I started my career as a programmer around 25 years ago... I used a text editor in a GUI. OOP frameworks were new, but they weren't much different from the ones around today. Sure, some of the specific tools have changed. But the day to day and the concepts used (OOP, processes/threads/async, networking, filesystems, signals, etc.) are all the same. I think the biggest changes is the huge increase in availability of information (docs, sample code, etc). IMO, software development fashions changes rapidly. But actual software development? The changes and improvements are glacially slow. I suspect that architecture (which is a discipline literally as old as human civilization) has changed more in the last 30 years than software development has. But that was mostly thanks to software. So there's that. :-)
