What I imagine devs will be talking about in 20 years....

OriginalGriff

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.

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!

OriginalGriff

But it has a trendy new name! :laugh:

Would that be during [President Honey Boo-Boo's](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Here\_Comes\_Honey\_Boo\_Boo) first or second term?

and whether they should work for cheap/poorly managed companies that make them write, perform and/or report their own test cases - but I'm sure all devs are honest people so that's OK.

Today it's Apple vs PC

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

and Java vs VB vs C#

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.

Then comes McDonald#, Objective-Coke, Pepsi++, and Visual Bank of America :^)

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...

But no, no no, Robbin Williams is not responsiblefor all this :-D He (RW) is maybe not everybodies "thing".. but for my ears he is doing his Job not that bad ... compared to a lot of Software companies :-O RW is a great Entertainer, but from a Software Company I excpect something more than Entertainment ;) Bruno [Edit] Concerning Robbie Williams, in case you think he is only a bad Boy. I'm a Drummer and singer, but I'm not able to sing such a "simple" song like this that precise like RW does.... href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iy4mXZN1Zzk">Robbie Williams - Feel - YouTube[^] And yes all this is far away from what a man like Elvis did... but now I have to go to Soap box :laugh: [/Edit] Moced to Soap box: [Nothing special](https://www.codeproject.com/Messages/5345871/Nothing-special.aspx)
