Developing for a 17 year old router
2 0 ReplyBro. There are people who are developing in Cobol for 50 year old systems.
There are games still being released for the original, 80s-era Nintendo.
So.... yeah. Unlikely? Sure. Impossible? Nope.
1 0 ReplyIt's not running on 50 year old hardware I can guarantee you that
1 2 ReplyUh, yeah, we established that a couple of comments ago. My point is that if people today still develop for 50-year-old hardware, it's not unreasonable to think that they could be developing for 17 year old hardware.
Frankly, I'm already bored with this conversation. Have a nice evening.
