No.If I can't work as a computer scientist anymore (I am my own business since many years), I'll simply do something else.I have many interests and "talents".Maybe I can work as a gardener, or I help the farmers around, or I do some social work, or I work as a garbage man, or I ...I am not worried in the slightest on a personal level.Society might crumble though.But then again, was it ever more than barbarism in disguise?
