From the latest #legacycoderocks episode with John Ousterhout:

"Life as a programmer is a series of confrontations with your own inadequacies"

Some lines don't just ring true, they hang in the air for an uncomfortably long time 😅.

@ctietze His book talks about testing a bit. He's also attended the #LegacyCodeRocks meetup and talked about this in the past, and how his courses recommend not using mocks. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/26088456

@jbrains This topic has come up a couple of times during #LegacyCodeRocks meetups, and I imagine those folks would be interested to attend as well. If you follow through, please advertise the the `#events` channel over at https://slack.legacycode.rocks.

I enjoyed recording an interview with @mscottford for the Legacy Code Rocks podcast! We connected the dots between legacy code and the impacts on the evolution of an organisation. You can listen to the episode here: https://buff.ly/3V8vILH

Are you interested in Software Bills of Material (SBOMs)? There's a team of researchers at the SEMERU (https://www.cs.wm.edu/semeru/) research lab with William and Mary (https://www.wm.edu/as/computerscience/) who are conducting a survey as part of their research into the topic.

I've been asked to share that survey with folks who might be interested in helping them out. You can find it here: https://wmsas.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_cO4qm1gk3AFunJk

I plan on having the researchers on the #LegacyCodeRocks podcast once they've compiled everything.

A couple years ago, Adi Bolboacă and I remote-paired on "Trivia" #LegacyCode in Perl. Now you can watch how we coped with frustrating network conditions and employed the "modulino" technique to get code under test. Enjoy(?)!

#PairWithMe #LegacyCodeRocks

Announcing the initial 1.07 release of notqmail, a community-driven fork of #qmail that begins where netqmail left off: https://notqmail.org/1.07

Themes for this release:

- Fix broken builds (FreeBSD, macOS)
- Make packaging easier

I'm proud to be one of several developers bringing this valuable #LegacyCode back to life. Here's my personal blog post telling this first chapter in the story of notqmail: https://schmonz.com/2019/08/20/announcing-notqmail/

Whenever I see @Andrea Goulet and M. Scott Ford at conferences, we always have mind-opening and actionable conversations. I hope my new guest spot on their #LegacyCodeRocks podcast, talking about definitions of #LegacyCode, does some of that for you.
