   I used to think this. Now I think that doing software well is actually very, very hard and even the best practitioners often get it wrong. The market for the best developers will always be high in my view.

   Also consider F#! In some ways it is more limited (no first class modules) but in others it is arguably better (operator overload, C# ecosystem, a slick take on do-notation).

   I have no interest in Go because it is so limited, more limited than other languages that I have already moved beyond, such as C#. I am far more interested in cutting edge languages such as Rust (borrow checker) or Idris (dependent types) o

   I wish The Matrix had humans in virtual reality cages because the AI had a mandate to keep them alive and well, and this was simply the most efficient mechanism for doing this. This would have made the resistance far more ambiguous as they

    you missed an important purpose of stop signs which is to make a route less appealing to motorists in the first place. ultimately this is necessary if the volume of traffic is ever to be reduced.

    The current situation may prove temporary, so some are hesitant to change their living arrangements. It is too early to see if wages will move for white collar city dwellers (since wages mostly change when people switch roles this has a lag

    This already exists with services like FaceIt Premium and ECL. Valve also do this on their matchmaking servers semi-secretly using Trust Factor. Unfortunately this can make the experience for new players much much worse.

    Yes! Another example.of this is C# and F#. Both build on the same .net base and both are Turing complete languages with elements of OOP and FP, but wow, the code that those communities write are completely different. They each steer you in
