What, exactly, was "obsolete" about those libraries. Did the code stop executing? Were they written in languages whose compilers/interpreters stopped functioning? Or were there simply newer, shinier toys to play with?
- coliveira 6y agoIf it was written in python, it can really stop working. Most companies are transitioning to Python3.
- coliveira 6y agoIf you think I'm joking, there are huge companies that have already declared Python2 as non-supported software, so if you have any software written in Python2 you have to either rewrite or stop using it.
