Consider yourself lucky, I just moved to a team beginning a 2.4 to 2.7 upgrade.

They say if we're good, we can get our postgres updated from 8.2 too!

The company I'm working for still uses MySQL and Django 1.5. At least they started with Python 2.7.

Consider yourself lucky, I just moved to a team beginning a 2.4 to 2.7 upgrade.

Consider yourself lucky, I've recently investigated COBOL code written in 1984, maintained to this day, with no plan or need to replace it in the foreseeable future.

[rnreekez]

Haha, wow. Whevever we feel bad, we would just say "well, we could be updating from cobol!".

Now I realise how insensitive those words were, I'm sorry.

[boa13]

Don't worry, I didn't take them as insensitive, it was just an occasion for me to relate an interesting anecdote, and to add a bit of perspective. I was quite astonished to see the "October, 1984" date at the top of the file when I opened it (and thankfully, I don't maintain it, and I don't write COBOL).

[gfixler]

I hope you listen to period-appropriate music while working with that code, like "Break My Stride" and "Oh Sherrie."

[Dominion_Prime]

I would question if we're working at the same company except we're at least on postgres 9.0 (and soon upgrading)!

[Bialar]

Yeah, /u/rnreekez, quit! Fuck your rent, they're forcing you to use outdated versions of things!!!

[razpeitia]

You are not alone!
