A New Decade. Any Predictions?
artagnon: 1. The death of x86, as we know it- x86 emulation for historical reasons. One of CPU/ GPU will have to beat the other.2. The rise of mainstream functional programming.3. By 2020, Chrome and Firefox each have 35% market share. Internet Explorer becomes insignificant.4. PS4 gets something to thrash Project Natal. The death of the PC as a gaming platform.5. The death of GCC. LLVM/ Clang will replace it.6. Microsoft tries harder to be the be-all and end-all of all software/ services, and eventually starts losing market share in several weak sectors.
