Now that the “disruption drunk” of 2010s no longer beguiles astute folks, I can say in the early 2010s I tried to help some “disruptive” payment companies understand the COBOL issue. Some are around but are not as successful and disruptive if they didn’t try to reinvent a wheel.https://twitter.com/BrianRoemmele/status/1137722175543078912 …

I worked on a project of 700,000 lines of banking COBOL written by 12 folks in 1983. There was no clear logic and it perplexed everyone.
I tracked down the last programer alive age 73.
He laughed and said he hated the bank and hoped someday they would be in a mess—they were! https://twitter.com/BrianRoemmele/status/1137716938954510337 …
