Will our code skills get better?

Over the years I have seen people come onboard who are really good and getting better. They stay a while and are gone. If you are lucky you can keep them a few years. Then you start over again. New person, new skill set, same learning curve, same complex business practices. Once they achieve mastery, they again are gone and you cycle again and again. All the time you are using their product which might not be getting better at all.

So if some are going to get the increase in speed or what we use to call throughput you might only get it by advancing the technology. The idea of throwing more hardware at a solution has not always been the best idea, but some have no option. TO this this is a great idea.
