I think development of software will continue to get "easier" as languages, technologies and ideas evolve. I think over time these technologies will get to the stage where you barely have to think about the technology in use, and rather just focus on the problem at hand/what you want to build; this really is currently the case only after years (or decades) of experience and purposeful practice.

The current development of software does require a lot of knowledge to break into the market; however this also means that software development is a skilled profession which leads to higher than average salaries.

I would also add that we are seeing people enter the software/web dev market without a 4 year degree. A lot of people that I know have done 2 year diplomas and even compressed 4 month "bootcamp" style programs


This is awesome.


a lot of media seemed to cover this... even if they didn't link to the actual interview it took me about 2 seconds to find it online...


Is any of this really a surprise to any of you?


HSBC just had to pay a 2b fine for money laundering, I guess the US gov doesn't accept BTC yet...
