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

    Let's overlook the similarities between that and the infamous hate group, in the name of science, shall we.

      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.

      That letter will be å. Only Scandinavians will be able to write code on their default keyboard. Programmers will know how to get it from the character map. All others will have no idea how to write anything :D

        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...

              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

                  20 years ago for embedded devs it was the shift from 8 bit controllers to 16 bit, DSPs and the exotic new 32 bit controllers. 20 years from now it'll be the shift from 32-bit ARM to 64-bit and virtual machines along with IPv6 for your IOT toaster....

                        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!

                          I think you give us too much credit: 1) Testing (greatest thing ever or sucks) 2) Code Formatting 3) Other Programmers 4) This horrible code you inherited 5) How to find a better work environment 6) How much trouble you keep getting into for posting things on CP and other people are reading!
