  1. i don't know about that on The Extinction of the Programming Species · · Score: 1

    I believe programming to be a growth market. More and more systems are becoming "intelligent", thus requiring programmers. If anything I see programming jobs becoming the majority of all jobs. I can forsee many human jobs being replaced by machines. Someone is going to have to program those machines to do their tasks.

    This looks like a credible source to me. It's obvious the second you notice the chicken suit photo.

  7. riddle me this batman on Sun and Kodak Settle Out of Court · · Score: 3, Insightful

    so now if I write a program that infringes on these patents using java as the programming language... am I safe because sun has already paid my licensing fees?

    If that's true then Sun has paid the price for us...making the ultimate sacrifice.
