Hello,
I would like to get your opinion on moving into programming. Basically, I want job security and the ability to work just about anywhere there are jobs. I've considered taking a job as a programmer, but I would like to know what you suspect the job prospects are for such position? From what I understand, software engineers might be "unemployable" by the time they're 35 as technology will pass them by (else they move to management). What about programmers? Do languages change so significantly now that 20 years from now they might have to seek other employment in a different industry?
Thanks!
