I had a job once trying to help the government un-fuck a janky codebase that they were in the process of paying billions of dollars for. I remember opening a file that had some issues (IIRC it could only be compiled with a specific discontinued compiler) and seeing a comment that the file was created on my literal birthday. Was quite the surprise.
