Quote
From the section of great predictions: In his book "The Decline and Fall of the American Programmer," 1991, Ed Yourdon writes:

"The American Programmer is about to share the fate of the dodo bird. By the end of this decade, I foresee massive unemployment among the ranks of American programmers, systems analysts, and software engineers. ... international competition will put American programmers out of work
