Which things, that are now difficult, will become easy in near future?


This question is inspired by https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30406201, but I am curious not just about programing, but all things that will be getting much easier …or got easier just recently.

Programming is not getting easier. It getting more complex, but the complexity is hidden . However, this all breaks down once you need to debug the system or extend the system.

There is however an ongoing budget increase in marketing to programmer/manager telling them that programming is getting easier.

Spending money - either buying stuff or paying for services.

Most things will likely get more complicated due to the ever increasing legal code imposing more complex regulations, and changing more rapidly.
