[business] I didn't wanna kill my China Pig

[piggymouse]

Not so long ago some US economist made a smart prediction on the global price trends over the next couple of decades. I can't remember neither the guy's name, nor his exact words, but the general thinking went like this: everything that can be produced in China will eventually be dirt cheap; everything that can't will get obscenely expensive.

I wonder if this trend applies to software development, and, if so, in exactly which way.

Why all those &'s ?

I think, in software there is no China. It's a different world, where billions of "real" people, those that are illiterate, that do not know how to combine "and" and "or", those that do not know basic English, could be considered as non-existent. Like nuclear arms - Israel can do it, Bangladesh cannot.
