THE CODE TO YOUR FUTURE

?When putting together an Israeli, American, and Nepali Data Professional - What do you think that can happened?

Bineet Sharma , Suresh Gautam , And I have a discussion during the Google developers Devfest.

The world of technology is shifting, evolving, and adapting to global market trends faster than ever before. According to a Forbes article, many senior technology executives are predicting big changes in software development, The world of software development is constantly changing with the introduction of new technology or the rise of a new trend. It has also become much more accessible, even to those with limited coding and engineering experience. This simultaneous increase in innovation and accessibility has created new trends and philosophies that will govern software development in the years to come modeling.

Technology is shifting and as it becomes easier and easier to create software, the barriers to entry become greatly reduced.?

According to ?Caroline Wong,?( Cobalt ) Companies Will Refocus On Longstanding Cybersecurity Threats

Software development certainly isn’t static; however, the threats organizations face are. Nearly every exploit in the?OWASP Top Ten ?remains the same as decades ago, with leaders wrongly assuming their current cybersecurity measures handle these basic exploits. Instead of investing in the next buzzword, organizations should embrace resources that truly test the strength of their security posture.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), software developers have a strong job outlook. The job growth rate for the profession is expected to rise by 24 percent — more than three times as fast as the average for all occupations — between 2016 and 2026. That’s 302,500 jobs that are expected to open up for software developers across the country.

Yet, software developers aren’t the only computer-related professionals advancing rapidly. According to the BLS, computer and information technology (IT) occupations of all kinds, such as computer and information research scientists, computer network architects, computer systems analysts, and computer programmers, are expected to increase by 13 percent over the same decade, 2016–2026. That’s a gain of 557,100 jobs.

The BLS notes that this increase may be due to a greater focus on cloud computing, big data, and information security. Regardless of the impetus, the future of programming looks bright.

To adapt to these shifts and evolutions within the IT and computer industries, you may need to acquire additional skills through an advanced education program

The use of AI, ML & Quantum Computing, especially in the software development space is increasing. Integrating AI into existing technologies will offer a meaningful platform for better decision-making, better outcomes, efficiency, automation, and enhanced digital experience. predictions for the Future of IT in 2022 Does coding have a future? Will coding ever go away? Is coding future-proof?

Evolution of Programming Languages

We started with low-level programming languages.?These allow you great power (you can essentially re-write how devices interact with each other, read/write directly to specific sections of memory, alert specific pixels on a monitor, etc.) but are very complex. Simple tasks often require hundreds of lines of code.

Next are the “mid-level” languages, which require a solid computer science education to truly master.?C for example gives up a little bit of power and computer control for very large gains in code reduction. Now, you can transform the 250-line program written in a low-level language into just 25–50 lines of code.

Finally, we have high-level programming languages, which offer little or no control over the low-level workings of the computer, but allow programmers to quickly write applications, often without needing to understand what is really going on.?Your 250-line program in a low-level language can become 3–5 lines in a high-level language.

There is still a place for all of these languages within our current computer usage, and there will probably continue to be for the next 20 years.

What’s Next for Programming?

Developers Will Leverage New (And Better) Collaboration Tools

According to Paulo Carvalho,?(Avantsoft) - Better tools for collaboration will change the way developers code. Most collaboration today is based on Git, where developers commit code that is reviewed by others and merged. However, products such as Visual Studio Code’s Live Share and GitHub’s Copilot hint at a future where live collaboration between developers (and even with AI) will change the way teams work. -?How Can We Prepare for the Future?

If you’re a coder, the best way to future-proof yourself is to continue to learn.?Highly skilled programmers will always be in demand.?Easier programming languages will create a larger pool of beginner “coders” (block builders), so you want to avoid being in that pool.

If you wish to be a publisher who is going to provide value, you must be able to bring expertise beyond what the user can do.

If you’re a tinkerer, and you simply like messing around, no need to prepare.

If you run a business, this is where things get interesting.?

How do you manage the time between now and this potential future??

Invest your time in learning new skills. The reality is that you can’t afford to wait for the future to come (technology will change a great deal in the next few years) and, the best way to prepare yourself for a technology revolution is to be technically competent.?If the time comes when?most of your creative employees are using drag-and-drop programming, you can use your development organization to train the rest of your organization and develop custom building blocks.

Will there be a need for programmers in the next 10 years?

Yes, Developers Will Add More Embedded Intelligence To Their Work Streams

To meet the growing demands for more features and better customer experiences, developers will add more embedded intelligence and automation within low code to their work streams. Together, these technologies take the heavy lifting out of developing. It makes it easier for developers to be problem solvers instead of code writers and leverage all kinds of tech, from integration and automation to AI. -?Ed Macosky,?Boomi

Get ready, Keep learning, and be prepared for the future.
