    I’ve been doing this for thirty years. I don’t see any reason to be pessimistic about software development. Right now I think we’re going through a rough patch. About to get tougher, I think, because we’re on the cusp of a big downturn in the economy, right on the heels of an industry downturn caused by Trump’s first term.

    Long-term, though, there will continue to be a need for good software developers. And their best efforts will continue to be hobbled by unrealistic timelines and pressure to get things done over getting them done well, thus ensuring we will continue to need ever more developers to continue developing the same things over and over.
