This is getting boring, honestly many people are now programmers or have some relevant IT skills and very soon this skill will be like pure water . .

Much like how MS WORD , MS Excel were all hot cake between 2000-2009.
Although not anymore now it's become a redundant skill to have

. I think there is a thread on front page where one guy was lamenting how he was unable to make money despite all the IT skills he has all cos of lack of clients.

Only on NL alone I know the number of persons I see on a daily basis that can create website from scratch .

Truth is give this thing 10years from now sef it'll become redundant . They are tonnes of materials online for anyone to learn.

am talking both the design and development aspect bros, I know what am saying sir. But no worries quote me again in 2030 by God's grace

It's the computer schools I pity the most , they are running out of time . I wouldn't want to go to a computer school to learn this stuffs when I can do so with a laptop in the comfort of my room.

So a skill that can be learnt readily online with the right amount of dedication will eventually become stale skill .

Trust me on this one bro

I av been doing this for over a decade bro.

U don't know what u are talking about.

In 2030 when machines would take over, programmers would still be needed to program the machine and I repeat , it will never be pure water.

Like I said, separate website and script writers from programmers.

Then went of to Pascal before C++ and Java came and spoilt everyone with OOP.
