没过多久他就写了续作《美国程序员的崛起与复兴》（The Rise and Resurrection Of The American Programmer）。要是能搞到一本，很值得一读。可以说是对那段历史的真实定格，能让你深入了解那个时代的文化。
He wrote a sequel The Rise and Resurrection Of The American Programmer not that long after. Its worth checking out if you can find a copy. A real snapshot of history and insight into the culture of the time.
……原因在于缺乏资源。我之前都没意识到我们讨论的是 Python 圈子的衰落与崩溃。我记得以前读过《美国程序员的衰落与陨落》，还有《美国程序员的崛起与复兴》。能反手正手两头都把钱挣了的咨询师，确实不一般。Python 正在走向衰落？你怎么会这么想？在我的工作中，Python 是化学信息学领域 de facto 的高级语言……

…software talent has been predicted for literally decades. In 1992, Ed Yourdon published “Decline and Fall of the American Programmer,” only to reverse himself four years later with the publication of “Rise and Resurrection of the American Programmer.” If anything, the rate at which capable software professionals can create value has dramatically increased over time.

……对于软件人才匮乏的预测，字面意义上已经持续好几十年了。1992 年，Ed Yourdon 出版了《美国程序员的衰落与陨落》，结果仅仅四年后他就自己打脸，出版了《美国程序员的崛起与复兴》。要说有什么变化的话，那就是有能力的软件专业人员创造价值的速率随着时间大幅提升了。软件并不是零和博弈，累积的进步让解决一个……

……关于这个话题的书，一本叫《美国程序员的衰落与陨落》，基本上就是在阐述你的论点，即美国软件质量下滑意味着我们会逐渐被超越；而另一本《美国程序员的崛起与复兴》是同一个作者写的，里面却说“哎呀我搞错了”，因为“差不多够用”（good enough）才是制胜策略，而不是不惜一切代价追求高质量。请注意，在写那些书的年代，所谓的“粗制滥造”代表正是微软……
