"7 years ago (2006), what was different? What new techs have come out in that span?"
Even though I understand the overall point you are making, we had a few significant changes since 2006. The emergenc of iphone/ipad and the App Store/iOS programming.
- mchannon 14y agoFair point. Still, what programming actually looks like for those environments (black monospaced text in large windows) is little changed. 2020 will see some new devices, but we won't be using our voices, LabVIEW-style icons, or a foreign character set to program these devices. I think in a number of ways it's reassuring that so little of programming skill itself is destined for obsolescence.
