@unclebobmartin They need to do a third edition and adapt to AI development.
Which parts of the structure are needed, which ones are obsolete and which new additions are worthy to add.

I built CourtWatch.us — a free public database for American citizens who deserve safer communities.
You can track which judges released defendants who then got rearrested, skipped court, or violated their release conditions. All public records. All free.
I started with Orange County FL and will be expanding to all 67 Florida counties and eventually every state in the country. This first batch of info is from 2024 and since public reports are released in March/April for the previous year, data is behind. But I wanted to see if this is plausible. After adding 2024,I'll add 2025 and then figure out how to get real-time-data uploaded.
It's in beta — would love to know what you think 👇
Numbers don't lie, but criminals do.

Do not rewrite legacy code
I cannot stress to you how much you do not want to rewrite legacy code
Only a 25 year old would think this was a good idea

Social Security systems contain tens of millions of lines of code written in COBOL, an archaic programming language. Safely rewriting that code would take years—DOGE wants it done in months. wired.com/story/doge-reb…

Genz gather around. Here you have the tale of a young woman who has gotten in over her head by insulting someone with considerably more knowledge and experience than she. So she is trying to deflect rather than engage.
Young lady, the way you debate people is to _face_ them instead of snickering behind their back like a gossipy sixth grader. You have called me irrelevant, and have implied that I am a snake oil salesman.
PROVE IT.

Here we have a case of "old programmer thinks what they did in the 70s to 2010s is relevant "
if you hear someone say this to you irl, you know they're intimidated and clinging to some sort of pride. They probably haven't shipped anything in 15 years.
It's kind of sad
Tech changes so fast that even 2018 is already outdated, but they don't get it and you sadly have to listen to it
They're great at domain and soft skills (except this guy) but don't listen to them about tech

I worked in a big corpo in my twenties for a year and a half between '74 and '76 programming in System/7 assembler. I ran screaming from that awful corporate environment and spent twenty more years working in startups, and then became a consultant, author, speaker, etc. I have remained technical all that time. My fingers are never far from the keyboard. I write a lot of code. You can call me irrelevant, or a snake oil salesman, but I challenge you to prove it rather then hurling childish insults.
