#SQL succeeded with similar vision as #COBOL
@wadayasutaka And there is a lot of much older code in older languages in the same state #cobol #pli #c

Może obecnie #COBOL nie jest już tak żywym tematem w rozmowach informatyków jak kiedyś, ale nadal jest to technologia, która teoretycznie jest wymarła, ale w praktyce... ciągle trzeba ją utrzymywać. A czasem opowiadać sobie o niej niestworzone historie. Jak to z nim jest?

Quelques lignes de #cobol, pour le fun du lundi soir :

IDENTIFICATION DIVISION. PROGRAM-ID. PATATE. PROCEDURE DIVISION. DISPLAY "Hello, World !". STOP RUN.

Quand je me rappelle de la complexité d'avoir un compilateur COBOL, à l'époque, alors qu'il suffit à présent d'un petit :

brew install gnucobol cblc -x main.cbl ./main

Does anybody of you use #SAS, #COBOL or #Delphi? I have #jobs to offer. #job

Everyone's rewriting the world in Rust, except the world.

We still run banks on COBOL, kernels on C, and dreams on YAML. Rust is great. But not everywhere.

You don't rebuild civilisation because a new hammer came out, right? Maybe you would, in this case, this post could be something cool for you to read:

Are we Rust yet?

Everyone's rewriting the world in Rust, except the world. We still run banks on COBOL, kernels on C, and dreams on YAML. Rust is great. But not everywhere. You don't rebuild civilization because a new hammer came out. Sometimes performance isn't the bottleneck, it's your team, your CTO, or your ego. So before you rewrite your CRM in Rust 'for safety' maybe ask if we really need it.

Ik krijg vandaag (!) de definitieve aanslag inkomstenbelasting van ....... 2022. Het duurt elk jaar langer, over een paar jaar bestaat het concept "definitief" helemaal niet meer bij hen. Cobol valt om. #belastingdienst #Cobol
