Comment on COBOL on Wheelchair

Comments

Oh damn, the aspirations of COBOL on Cogs are now a reality?

I call shotgun on "Why You Should Use COBOL on Wheelchair Instead of Ruby on Rails For Your Startup".

Introducing the CRAP (COBOL-RPG-Apache-PL/SQL) stack. Consulting available and a book on the way.

Make a CRUD app with CRAP!

I thought that was PHP's sales pitch. Zing!

Don't be silly. PHP's sales pitch is "at least it's not Perl."

Perl's pitch, meanwhile, has lately been "at least it's not PHP."

I know who's winning that fight, in terms of share, but I'm not sure who I think more deserves to lose it.

If it is web scale and helps me pivot faster, I'm all for it.
