Yes, to some degree, I have problems, but not too severe. The problem is you have to think logically, this puts your mind into "black or white" mode, and you have to find strength in yourself not to apply it to all surrounding life. There's no way to predict which technology will last longer. I think C will last indefinitely, because it's an "optimal" close-to-machine language. C++ is much better at coding large systems, but you have to be very smart at handling it, it has a lot of "hype-driven" innovations, not necessarily needed. Web is a very "interpreter" driven market, so "interpreters" will born and fade indefinitely, you can't predict it. Too many ways to do the same thing, basically.
