Andando un poco en Stackoverflow me encontre con esto y me hizo bastante gracia!

My predictions for the future of programming:

• Every 2 years there will be a great hot new language that you just have to use.
• Every 5 years Microsoft will come up with a completely new way to create GUIs.
• Every 10 years someone will come up with a great new software development methodology.
• Every 20 years someone will come up with a great new programming paradigm.
• Until the heat death of the universe, there will still be more installed and running legacy Cobol code than everything else put together.

Bastante gracioso!
