Perhaps they'll be texting - and due to an additional 20 years of dumbing down the populace, they'll only have one letter so as not to get confused. Perhaps the only argument left will be what letter. Based on current texting practices, we can only hope it's the space-bar.

Of course - it had to be upper case. I'd have thought "K" though - it can be used in so many ways:
K? Greetings! How are you?
K! Let's do it!
K Whateva.
K... Suspicious agreement.
etc.Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Qubits are soooo 2036! All the cool froods are using octanibbles.

Nice try Griff! Trying to trick me with that old 201X technology. I remember from my Ancient Computing History class that a nibble is 4 bits, so an octanibble is just a 32-bit value!
But it has a trendy new name! :laugh:

There was never any competition there; the PC is the most used mainstream computer.

Nor there; Java was pushed by universities, as it was an open-source alternative they could hold practical lectures on, as opposed to the closed Microsoft platform. Java runs coffee-machines and more, but it did not take of on the desktop. C# IS the next incarnation of VB, and since the future rhymes, when C# will be villified in the future, we'll "invent" a new language (one that replaces keywords in the syntax, nothing else) and all problems will be solved anew.

No, no, no. We will still be talking about : The Latest JavaScript Library!!!!! Some (many) of you are screaming and pounding your desk with a fist now, but you know it's true. :laugh:
By then it will have been replaced with RedBullScript.

The already have [Visual Pringles](http://money.cnn.com/2004/05/20/news/fortune500/trivia\_chips/). It compiles down to STOOLBOL. Thank goodness for Friday afternoons, I'm clearly done.

If it goes on like in the last 30 years then it will be: 1. Secure your investment through our tool, blah blah blah 2. Using our tool, you can create reusable components (re-usable for how long?), blah, blah blah But I think it's time to change this and no longer discuss about C # || VB || Java || Python || .... It is time that a task can be defined in a meta language... and then tools (implemented perhaps in C # || VB || Java || Python ...) should convert this meta definition into applications . It means that the description of the task (in “the” meta language) remains ~"constant". The tools take over the translation of the “meta task” into the current techniques. Only my creazy mind. Bruno

After hearing for the past year at work how Salesforce can do everything including cure cancer and bring back Robbin Williams, I gotta say this is sooooooo true.

Oddly enough, this almost reminds of using binary, just upper and lower case Ks instead. So in that light...
