(no title)

cmehdy | 4 months ago

I work at a company that invented an internal syntax to compile into C++ code, that still relies on c-shell and conventions taken when OS/2 was in use there, and with a web of Jenkins instances and homemade wrappers and DBs to build that stuff.

I can safely say that title exists already. And I value my current experience as a humbling example of what is to come as software becomes an older industry, and not just a world of startups and their freshest languages/frameworks/tools.

The way you describe this system is exactly how I'd describe a system I worked on in the early 90s at PW (before it was PWC).
