What boring technologies/practices do you use in-house?

I'm a boring tech evangelist. I like foundational, long-lasting knowledge, the more foundational the better, even if it's harder to acquire initially, to the extent that my degree is in EE instead of CS for much the same reason an aspiring writer might major in Classics instead of English. Tell me about your dull uses of C, of Debian, of Bash, of PHP, of PostgreSQL. And then tell me about your slightly shameful uses of Perl, Jenkins, etc. We focus so often on what is new and shiny and promises the world - but we already have a world to appreciate, and it's right under our feet.
