"Cobol programmers were urgently in demand" They weren't. They called for volunteers. They didn't actually offer any well paying jobs. That's not demand, that's just entitlement.
You're crazy man but that's why I'm interested in your videos. I never even thought of this being a thing yet I am here wondering how you made it possible. Thank you for being who you are and I look forward your next creation x)
I work as a data consultant and have been in a project for 6 months transforming pl/1 (ibm's cobol) into Taled mappings to deal with an insurance company data. After that I wanted to end it all.
See here's the thing, you'd have to spend money to port all the cobol code to more modern languages, and banks would much rather spend significantly larger sums of money finding cobol programmers in an age where literally no one uses cobol. See, corporations nowadays only care about their bottom line for the current quarter, so investing in long-term infrastructure that would save them millions over the coming decades is just not really something they can get behind.
I've just realized why I don't like Java - because it's french! But feel a bit confused to be a fan of German that I don't know) It also means that CTail (his name is not Sea Tail anymore, I guess everyone agree) is German as well, while he looks like more from Scandinavian countries) Obfuscate is horribly loosing his positions. Seems like Ctail would replace Obfuscate completely one day despite the fact Obfuscate said he's gonna stay here as well. He just grew up these puny mortals and needs to focus on his own channel.

I would argue that Java is more like English, considering they both have a very rigid structure but are also relatively simple. C++ however has in common with French, that they both have may too many features. Like do you know in how many ways you can conjugate a verb in French? A lot.

Nice vid. Just need to refactor this to work with punch cards and text terminals. Will anyone think of the ancient IBM giants whose shoulders the world stands upon?
Creaturey: *hate to indexes starting at 1*
*cries in Lua and Julia*
Lua even calls its dictionaries tables, how fitting
I really like Lua... but it definatly has some very unappealing quirks. This being one of them
My first introduction to programming was through MATLAB (I still use it). I struggle with zero indexing languages
Local t = {
[0] = 1234,
[1] = "etc.."
}
print(t[0])
And you have an table with a index of 0 ^^
@@surage123 Oh the wonders of dynamic programming languages! You can even do the opposite to have a 1-indexed array in JavaScript
Ofcourse this dude knows COBOL, he is a goddamn dinosaur
I'm absolutely in love with the animations and the voice overs!

kinda wierd that visual cobol is paid tho
i agree
agreed as well -- thankfully, though, it does appear like they at least offer a personal editon for free (essentially for hobbyists)
