>> Software rots
> No it does not. I'm thankful that it does, or I would have been out of work long ago. It's not that the files change (literal rot), it is that hardware, OSes, libraries, and everything else changes. I'm also thankful that we have not stopped innovating on all of the things the software I write depends on. You know, another thing changes - what we are using the software for. The accounting software I wrote in the late 80s... would produce financial reports that were what was expected then, but would not meet modern GAAP requirements. |
