Switch expressions bring to mind the "computed GOTO" and "arithmetic IF" in Fortran II. Anyone else here remember them?

Low-code development tools, having grown and matured during a time of increased enterprise app demand and a programming skills shortage, will be used for most application development by 2024, research firm Gartner Inc. predicts. Does this mean we'll finally move on from 4GL/CASE?
I know everyone has been using nothing but those for decades.
Oh, sorry. Gartner. Nevermind

I've worked with one such tool, but you definitely need some programming knowledge to get any serious work done.
In my particular case, the "enterprise grade" is also a bit overdone.
I mean the platform didn't even have source control, not something an enterprise could do without!
If things get too complicated you're back to writing some good old HTML, CSS and JavaScript yourself, but with extra steps.
3/10 would not recommend.

I took a good, long look at Mendix, since it's "just down the road" from us, and I was considering contributing to it, but the tech isn't there, yet; it needs a lot more nuance before it becomes truly useful.
... And a way better UI!

I've absolutely no idea; I just kept typing, and when I posted, two of them turned up.

When we asked about it and how other clients used it they had to confess that their other users didn't use the UI, but typed their own front-end and only used the back-end
We were basically testing their UI and in the end my client got a discount for contributing to their product
The back-end is just clunky too, it's the front-end that we would save the most time on if it didn't have all these bugs...
It's better now and if you know the application you can make simple forms quite fast... But it's all forms, for AJAX you have to do extra work and it's only more difficult.

The company, which has attracted nearly $30 million in funding from a SoftBank-owned firm and others, is reportedly relying mostly on human engineers, while using hype around AI to attract customers and investment that will last it until it can actually get its automation platform off the ground. Now I know who was submitting all the 'code plz' requests
I'm so very shocked that someone would be dishonest in the AI space.

AIs learn by repeatedly seeing similar behaviour in slightly different input data.
It's no wonder Skynet decided to kill us all.

It's not AI hype. The human engineers they employ don't possess any real intelligence. They're just artifically intelligent.

Is it that their stakeholders could not differentiate between natural intelligence and artificial intelligence?

It needs to use blockchain somehow.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Essentially, then, it gets added to a finite FiFo queue of bug reports that no-one ever does anything with.

Amazon's Rekognition system wrongly matched one in five Californian politicians with images from a database of 25,000 wanted criminals' mugshots in tests by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). Sounds about right
