I'm sure there's some quippy law here. We used to have manual QA now most of the testing is done via automation, there used to sys admins handling all the servers now its all cloud which can be handled by programmers/dev ops people. Maybe in the future we will have code as a service where most of the code is written automatically while few programmers oversee it.
