Visual Foxpro. The application originated in 1986 or so and the original language was dBase II, but moved to FoxBase in 1987, and FoxPro/Visual FoxPro over the next couple of decades.
I do as much in Python as I can justify, but I still have to work in VFP quite a bit. I personally have code from 1988 that's still running in this application.

- ericcholis 10y agoJust found this comment, which mirrors my sentiment exactly. Quite a bit of my time is spent on modern infrastructure and languages. But, the rest is spent maintaining a VFP application from early 2000's But, I'll give FoxPro one plus, it can integrate quite well with REST APIs. Hell, even modern SQL databases are fine.
