Coding will be a normal skill kids learn in schools, just an ordinary introduction into complex computing.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, that\u2019s the future but we ought to take a look at the present. And the present tells us that almost one third (<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8 out of 25 to be precise<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) of all jobs are tech-oriented. So, what do we do with the remaining two thirds of workers that either don\u2019t need coding or won\u2019t be needing it any time soon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How far does coding stretch into our careers? Will the rise of automation have its say in it and make a stir? Let\u2019s find out. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When Did The Automation Frenzy Start<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbc.ca\/news\/business\/rise-of-automation-1.4120794\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CBC News<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> states that the term \u201cautomation\u201d came into use since the late 1940s. The pioneer to start using this term was the automotive giant that introduced an automation department.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The automation frenzy is at full swing now and in great use in companies of all sizes. In fact, it\u2019s one thing that actually saves costs for the entrepreneurs and small business owners who instead of hiring use automation tools such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/zapier.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zapier<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All departments are finding a good use to automation tools.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Marketers use advanced customer relationship tools to help them lead customers through the sales funnel without much manual work. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even the developers we have referred to here when talking about coding are using tools to automate the cumbersome manual work. As an example, we have solutions that can track how an app is behaving and if there are any errors thrown &#8211; one of them being an<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/stackify.com\/how-to-monitor-iis-performance\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">IIS performance monitoring<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> software.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With new programs, software, apps, and the overall use and pervasiveness of technology in our lives, automation is on an increase.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How Far Is The Automation Going<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For many, automation is attacking their jobs. There are many predictions supporting this fear, such this one claiming a staggering <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">38% of American jobs<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> will be automated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some industries will suffer a greater impact than the others. Finance and insurance jobs predicted to suffer from a greater risk, followed by transportation and storage. Industries that are technologically more advanced than the others, such as research and development, have &#8211; beside the tech industry &#8211; seen major advances using different automated aids such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/rapidlab.com\/automated-mouse-ear-tags\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">automated<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> ear tags, for example.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We could go as far as to say that the automation revolution will be the next \u201cindustrial revolution\u201d &#8211; and it won\u2019t stop affecting all the job markets, especially in the developed countries. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is this good or bad? Well, it\u2019s unclear. Some jobs will obviously disappear under the impact of automation, but many activities in a company will become more efficient. New jobs will evolve, which brings us to the next point. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Is The Role Of Coding<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019ve concluded that the automation will become integral to our lives &#8211; either through schooling or a job later on. And the increase of automation technology will push us even further into learning at least the basics of coding.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The analogy is pretty simple &#8211; the driver needs to know the simplest fixes on the car, and the worker will need to check the basic errors in the automations. You\u2019ll need to change the windshield wipers by yourself at some point, even if you are not a mechanic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hence, you don\u2019t have to be a professional but you\u2019ll need to know your way around it.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Only 30 years ago, there were practically no code-a-thones.
