    Gaze not into the abyss, lest you become recognized as an abyss domain expert, and they expect you keep gazing into the damn thing.

        I now have this tweet printed & hung up outside my cubicle. Would it be okay for me to put a screencap of it in a presentation at my job?

        And this is why I do not put COBOL, FoxPro, Visual Basic, Java, or JavaScript on my resume…

        I noticed you don't even mention removing FORTRAN from your resume.

        I managed to avoid learning FORTRAN in the first place, unlike the other unfortunate language experiences.

        Ah, the ol' "Better to remain silent and be thought a COBOL programmer than put it on your resume and remove all doubt" adage. 😉

        Everything before C++ is a dim haze. (Well, okay, straight C if there's a good reason for it.)

        if you do not mind gazing into yourself, then by all means, list yourself 😉

        Beware when you gaze into the void, for the void gazes into you. Beware you cast into the void, for you get a type error.

        This post is unfair to crevice experts, particularly since all abysses start as crevices.
