We've been here before... when VB6 and Delphi were out and popular, it became possible for domain experts to build a passable application and get the job done. There was still a large demand for programmers to come in and clean things up, fix all the edge cases, etc. if it turned out to be useful, when there was a larger target to adapt it for.

The current situation seems quite similar to me, tools to make code easier to write, but not easier to maintain. I think programming jobs are safe.

People say our job is safe, but aren't we in similar position to the horses who got replaced by cars or telegraph operators who just vanished?
