The daftest ever silly scare about date related information has to be
the millenium bug 01/01/2000, more ridiculous than any other silly
prediction (planes crashing and nuclear power stations going the way
of Chernobyl) because so many people got duped by COBOL programmers
getting one last squeeze of cash out of everyone before it became a
minority legacy language.
However, I doubt there was any conspiracy at work, I suspect some non-
technical monkeys got cold shivers when told all systems would need
updating and the good old panic-driven hysteria propagated all by
itself, with a little help from the media, developers didn't need to
be complicitly silent either, I recall playing down the hype to many
customers, but they would not listen to me - the hype had taken over -
it did all start in the COBOL world though.

That was your Stupid Mistake, not a "PREDICTION" I made!
Tara was History so the concept doesn't relate.

The Templars had absolutely nothing to do with Tara.
That's like saying George Washington was to blame for 9/11, or Bill
Clinton started the Civil War.
You're mish-mashing timeframes just as poorly as you do everything
else.
Don't claim that "History is History" when you write nothing but
absurdities.

I did not claim it was your prediction - surely the above explanation
shows where I think it all originated, and it certainly was not you.
> Tara was History so the concept doesn't relate.
01/01/2000 is now also history, more recent but still history.
The subject of this thread relates to templars complaining about a
date, I provided a real complaint and prediction about a date, only it
actually happened, and we all lived through it, even if some were not
aware.

Yes, Root, and isn't it amazing that COBOL is still used in view of
the vast superiority of Object Oriented Programming ?
Java is so powerful that I now have a Java program that switches IP

It's a matter of practicality and commercial practice.
Basically, if it's not broke, don't fix it.
For smaller systems with low data throughput, there is no need to
redevelop the systems until they reach a point where new modifications
and interoperability with newer systems becomes so awkward and time-
consuming that there is a commercial justification to redevelop.
There is definitely a specialist market for COBOL developers, and you
can bet they charge a pretty penny for their services.
I also have specialist skills in legacy technologies, those being
FoxPro and Visual Basic 6, both these were outmoded ten years ago by
Microsoft .NET platform, but there are still thousands of systems out
there (just in the UK) all requiring support and modifiactions.
This makes up a good proportion of all the work I have got on at the
moment.

Yet I'm interested - we have been offered an opportunity to learn
COBOL,, ALGOL and FORTRAN over the next few months by a retired old
Trinity Professor who wants to amuse himself teaching again , for free
of course .
He says he wants to bring people back to where it all started from .
He is one of the four revered founders of the TCD Computer Science
Department back in 1969 after some engineers had introduced an old
minicomputer to the university back in 1962 .
What do you think, will I take it up ? He says it will only take us 3
hours a week with his teaching, plus an hour or two of our own
studying per week, and that commencing from our level we would be
happily programming in all three by the summer.
I think it's too good an opportunity to turn down, no books to buy
either - they're all still in Trinity libraries, he points out .
He takes on students too from outside the college for free, basically
anybody who will come in and listen and learn .
Like you do, he points out that though he has OOP , he has never had
to use it, and doubts if many of us will ever need OOP either !
I think it could be fun ?

From what I recall of my brief introduction to COBOL, it's alot like
PASCAL, and much simpler than Java or C++.
It is a different way of thinking, being procedural rather than OOP,
but if you have the time, go fot it.
If it were me, I'd go to the introductory lecture and see how it goes.

It comes from a time when I was playing with linux, posted on usenet

I kept the nym as it also has nature-based connotations, and I liked

Root might know this .
What would happen in the British Isles to you if four men attacked you
at night on the street to rob you, wielding an iron bar meaning to
split your head open with it - and you pulled out an unnlicensed
pistol and shot the four of them dead on the spot, staying on the
scene and handed yourself up to the Police when they arrived ?
The law regarding bearing unlicensed firearms is much the same in
Ireland as in the UK , though not as strict iin Ireland, and now we
have a law coming in, very sensible I think, allowing you to kill a
burglar stone dead, but only if you find him in your house )
( Two detectives came to my house back in 1989 acting on information
received and took away a fabulous Springfield rifle ( unlicensed) -
there was never another word about it. One of them asked me for a
disposable plastic bag at the time - I asked him what for . he
replied : " I'm not going to look a fool, Mick, carrying a rifle up
the street in broad daylight like you did yesterday ! " heh heh
heh . ) .
Four men, who he took to be Bulgarian because of their accents , one
bearing an iron bar, emerged out of the blue and went to rob and
attack a young nephew of mine in a deserted Kilkenny back street after
midnight a month ago - Garda are looking for them. A fast young
fellow, he managed to dodge them and run for his life . So I'm
thinking of walking the same area late at night , packing a pistol in
the hope that they attack me similarly - thus my question .
