Banks Love COBOL

cobol-memes, legacy-code-memes, banking-memes, mainframe-memes, lord-of-the-rings-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The entire financial world runs on COBOL code written when dinosaurs roamed the earth. New programmers see this ancient language and want it burned at the stake, but banks cling to it like Gollum with the precious ring. Why rewrite millions of lines of working code when you can just pay COBOL developers obscene amounts of money instead? The banking industry's motto: "If it's broken enough to work for 60 years, don't fix it."

The Secret Bat Signal For Tech Support

The desperate art of tech support manipulation! Every hardcore PC gamer knows the pain of waiting days for replies on support forums. But add those magic words "emergency need help fast" and suddenly your thread becomes the hottest ticket in town. It's like a bat signal for keyboard warriors who can't resist correcting someone who sounds desperate. The transformation into a full clown represents the increasingly ridiculous lengths we'll go to just to get someone to explain why our RTX 3080 is making that weird grinding noise. The ultimate hack: intentionally suggest a wrong solution to your own problem and watch how quickly the "well, actually" brigade assembles to save the day.
