I don't understand what you guys are arguing
about. Any programmer that I
know who is under 40 only programs in one language: Java.
So, a Java compiler isn't just a portable C preprocessor? :-)
The under age 40 system administrators that I know
can't program in any
language unless you call python a language.
What's a "system administrator"?
There was one prediction that really went wrong,
"I don't know what the programming language of 2000 will look like
but I know it will be called Fortran."
Tony Hoare circa 1982
No, it won't be CALLED Fortran.
