COBOL was the butt of so many jokes in the hacker culture back then. Hell, COBOL by itself was a punchline. Lots of C++ & Java in those days. Mostly C++.

Same. Shoot, I've been pulled into the boss's office before and told not to use terms like "big O" on the job because they confuse the junior devs. And I've never needed to balance a tree or reverse a linked list or

I used to live on IRC, but it's been years since I was a regular user. Are channel takeovers still a thing? That was one of the things that turned me off on it after getting locked out of the channel I called home for most of a decad
