I don’t see SQL, Python, R etc, data science, and data engineering in general going anywhere in a hurry. Businesses are generating more and more data each day.

I don’t see SQL, Python, R etc, data science, and data engineering in general going anywhere in a hurry. Businesses are generating more and more data each day. When I was at University the database courses (and the lecturers themselves) were very abstract and so excruciating boring that I leaned almost nothing. Courses in languages like C and machine code were much more fun. But, decades later I find myself doing SQL every day, and despite having a compsci degree I’m effectively self-taught in all the languages I actually use.
