The Lindy effect says that what’s been around the longest is likely to remain around the longest. "We don’t know what language engineers will be coding in in the year 2100. However, we do know that it will be called FORTRAN."
Yes, that's in the article, but it's a great quote.

More like: It'll cost them a FORTUNE to find someone to use FORTRAN.
|

If we flood the market with FORTRAN developers now, they'll still be cheap in 2100.

The enterprise middleware landscape is shifting dramatically, with organizations pursuing a variety of paths — in both specialized managed services and DYI iPaaS packaged software – to get to the common destination of cloud-enabled middleware. It's true - I've switched from a belt to suspenders for my middlewear

Okay, I give up. With a little research, I've discovered that "iPaaS" is a pug-ugly acronym for "integration platform as a service" but DYI is obviously something so innovative that nobody else knows what it is. Maybe it's just shorthand for Doesn't Yet Indicate Anything.
98.4% of statistics are made up on the spot.

Double Your Insanity
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?

Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

I think that was supposed to be DIY.
Maybe it means 'Dunderheaded Yabbling[^] Inside'?

Software might be eating the world, but most businesses are sitting out the feeding frenzy because they can’t release software fast enough to meet changing customer needs. Mental note: stop using real intelligence to write software and use the artificial kind

to meet changing customer needs.
Or is that "to fix bugs customers found" and "to meet existing customer needs because we were so off target the first time?"
Speaking only for myself, most of my needs (with regards to software!) originate from a crappy, buggy, tool/website that I have to use. My core needs for what I want the app to do doesn't change.
Now, granted, there's always that fun discovery phase when the customer sees their data in a different way and realizes they could do other things with it, reporting, etc. But once that "honeymoon phase" has stabilized, it's all maintenance, baby.

Http packet traffic capture/snooping...

Ah, much clearer now, we use Wireshark for that, but that's a bit too complex to my taste, maybe I'll give Fiddler a try.
