What I see more and more is an expectation that, since computers themselves have consistently gotten easier to use with the introduction of things like mice and touch-interfaces, plug-and-play and graphical interfaces, programming them can be assumed to have gotten proportionally easier. Unfortunately for everybody involved, it's actually the other way around - as computers have gotten to be easier to use, they've become _harder_ to effectively program, since user's expectations keep growing exponentially. So you have bosses who expect everything to take a few hours at most because, "it's not like I'm asking you to put together one of those incomprehensible command-line thingies that you have to type into, I'm just looking for a normal drag-and-drop reactive cross-platform cloud-based application!"
