What skills (technologies) get outdated slower? - Programmers ...

Well at the risk of sounding slightly cheesy: Ideas are timeless. By this I mean that the notion of a depth first search is goodness knows how old, but still totally relevant. Likewise, things that aren't totally platform and technology dependent tend to have a longer lifespan.

If you learn things like

  • Algorithms
  • Data structures
  • Paradigms and Concepts
  • Common [Coding] Sense
  • How to Document
  • A Sparkling Sense of Humor

then no matter what technology you're using, you'll still be a reasonably competent developer.

Depending on what sort of work you do, compilers, webdev, dbs, finance, whatever, their will be a certain amount of domain specific knowledge that will be relevant so long as the field is relevant.
