Just like vampires fear sunshine and Superman fears kryptonite, modern developers run screaming from COBOL code. That ancient green screen with its uppercase commands might as well be garlic to a vampire.

Nothing strikes fear in the heart of a 20-something React developer quite like being told "we need you to maintain this 60-year-old mainframe code." Career kryptonite indeed.
