Given how fashion-driven the web industry seems to be, my guess is that some new hotness will steal the stage from it in the next few years. I seem to recall seeing tons of posts about CoffeeScript maybe around 6~7 years ago, but it doesn

Why did they raise the orbit above the Earth so many times instead of just burning for the moon all at once?

Almost certainly not. It will generate things that look like the text of scientific papers on a casual glance, but which will be dream-logic gibberish if you actually read it. The unicorn example makes no sense if you stop and think about

If you do have to redo everything, why the hell would you switch to another proprietary technology?! Why not use OpenSceneGraph, OGRE, Irrlicht, Cube2, or one of the hundreds of other free game engines / frameworks out there instead?
