Comment on 82% of Open-Source Projects Suffer from Tool Rotparent

Comments

The C++ code I wrote in 2008 doesn't compile today, despite depending only on libSDL. Lots of small things that have broken, mostly GCC behaving differently.

Still miles better than the JS and cloud spaces where code has such a short half-life you need to handle it with tongs and keep it in a lead box when you aren't using it, but still. All code rots.
