I have a buddy that owns a vending company, he lost a pretty big account and was hurting, I thought about how I could help him and I obviously thought, teach him to develop a web presence and teach him adwords. He learned and learned how to program in the process, I was amazed at how much, given his inside knowledge of the business he had built to support new ways of doing business. Not only did he replace the revenue, he created entirely new revenue stream. I always thought,hey coin operated vending is just coin operated vending, but a guy armed with the ability to develop and deep knowledge of his industry is a formidable business man. He said to me, he should have learned to develop a long time ago. We may not know how software can help a baker but a baker sure would, if he knew what software can do, and could assemble it and the day that someone translates thoughts into applications is the day that we fundamentally change the world again. It probably wont be pretty for individuals in pure development roles.
