@Aki before you jump to any conclusions about the short career path of hard core developers... look at what developers in developing countries say about it here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/972611/old-developers-any-future
@Steve, thnks. read that and me thinks it applies only to hard core programmers. Code scripties and the rest unfortunately will not make it.. even the oldies have to learn many newer things or be phased out. On another topic, it will be interesting to see is what Walu just posted a few minutes ago. The person coming over for a visit is not a Mr/Miss Chai na Mandazi session but a computer scientist and decorated one at that, *Sir Timothy John "Tim" Berners-Lee. * I'm embararrased to say that the best effort out of KE ( not from skunks but generally the tech sector ) will be nothing but "mpesa" which is absurd to me. Imagine telling the guy of downloaded libraries and still cannot build something unique to KE ? wooaaa!! me thots... :-)
