  • One parallel for programming might be what it's like to farm.
    • A century ago many people were farmers.
    • Today, far, far fewer people are farmers.
    • Today, people can still farm, but as a hobby.
      • We call it gardening.
    • If you're still working as a farmer today, you're likely doing a job very different from farmers a century ago.
    • Programming might end up being the same.
