Gary wrote this in 2005: "Do not remove this line. I don't know why, but everything breaks." Gary quit in 2007. Left his resignation inside a preprocessor directive. The comment is still there. Nobody touches it. We don't talk about Gary. #programming #legacycode #cplusplus

Got a 30yr old legacy system? Don't rewrite it. Use AI to: • Beef up test coverage • Fix stale documentation • Prep for scale THEN modernize. AI isn't a silver bullet—but throw it at testing & docs first, and magic happens. 🧵 #DevOps #AI #LegacyCode #TechStrategy9
