Is programming dead?

You still have to understand and handle ALL of the details.: As they say, the devil is in the details. This is really only about automating the connections of the big parts. The darn details will NOT go away. The problems is, all the idiots using this to generate all this code, and they do NOT understand the details. I have seen big projects fail where they thought they could magically make all of their problems go away with the right tool. Is anyone aware of one large project where this worked? Not to say that it could not help with the right people using it.; Posted by: DonnieBoy Posted on: 04/28/04 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
