Gazpacho posted:at the time MUMPS was created (1966) "structured programming" was barely a subject of discussion in academic journals and certainly not adopted by any industry players mumps was bad even by 1966 standards structured programming, as we know it, came out of the late-50s algol efforts. it was most definitely a topic of academic discussion. maybe you should search for "algol" instead of "structured programming" fortran IV, an actual sane programming language, was sold as a commercial product in 1961. it wasn't algol, but it was algol-like, and usable by most programmers with minimal training. in summary, this is a lame defense and you are lame for posing it.

Cybernetic Vermin posted:tbf the sensible way to do a rewrite if one is to do one would be to create a component which handles actual posting and rendering of thread pages off of some sensible database + queries to the old one, while keeping the entirety of the old forum rolling with, from its perspective, zero posts in all threads this presumes anyone understands the current query pattern / database lotta fuckin things working against you on that one string bitfields (probably) no foreign keys, given the age of the jelsoft product mysql 4 ported to mysql 5 mystery meat everywhere

Sweevo posted:because lowtax wants someone to actually write it, not 5000 people doing concept art or starting the wiki except that we literally have hundreds of people who have the spare time and interest i suspect the actual reason it's being done in secret is that lowtax and his boy wonder are ashamed of what yospos/fyad/shsc would bitch about

Uncle Enzo posted:maybe this is all moot and actually lowtax has all dev work being committed to a server somewhere he controls and the only difference is visibility. hate to see anyone's work get lost it's written in elixir, so the work was "lost" from the very beginning in five years no one will know how to read a toy language meant for a dead VM

if you have time to post about the minimum wage on twitter, paying $17 for a hamburger is probably no great burden in norway it costs about $40 to get a pizza delivered. norwegians can afford it. it's fine.
