These languages were supposed to eliminate programmers by having analysts do all the tech work. However, doing tech work is career suicide for any non programmer. What if a future VP was caught cleaning the toilets... The curse of frameworks is that at some point businesses outgrow them and then they hit a wall with performance, ability to add some feature, or huge licensing fees.
- blablabla123 9y agoDidn't know that, can you elaborate on that? Anyways 2 guys directly come into my mind which where not programmers but still involved into tech work. (One guy was actually doing FoxPro stuff with his private license, and the other guy had a server with some custom PHP. The one guy was on the lowest point of the career ladder at the company and the 2nd guy got fired eventually.)
- codeonfire 9y agoWell it is rooted in basic anti intellectual thought. How can computer nerds possibly understand business? Therefore we will create fox pro and eliminate the nerds. In reality non programmers have to do guerilla tech work in secret. Yes, it was called guerrilla tech work because IT and nerds were so hated.
