2024 predictions for the economy and tech
Off the back of relatively successful predictions for 2023, here are my, likely to be mostly wrong predictions for 2024.

I’m Wille Faler, an experienced consultant, software engineer, manager & entrepreneur with over 20 years industry experience.
I’m passionate about building, enabling & scaling high-performance teams & organisations, and the technologies that enable them.

2023 prediction results
At the beginning of January, I made some predictions for the year. How did they pan out? Some where surprisingly accurate..

Post programming-language software engineering
Bruce Lee said "Using no way as a way, having no limitation as limitation", and I think this applies to software engineering and programming languages as well.
