I've been in the industry since 1979. It cracks me up when I see discussions like these pop up every 4 or 5 years. In the 80's it was "4GLs will render developers obsolete". In the 90's it was "Shared world-class libraries will render developers obsolete". Now its "global tech slaves will render developers obsolete".
New technologies emerge and Americans gain a quick edge and then the "copy cats" emulate what we do for less money and then the threat of obsolescence rears its ugly head.
This is one old-timer geek that will laugh his way to the bank on the road to retirement!
