It was scary giving the kitten a bath.

Tiger in kittens fur?

 

[dansgotguns]

Anybody want. It's nice just scared

Taco Bell will take it for free.

Are you sure a neighbor didn't lose it? Wild kittens are not friendly by nature. Someone has been handling that kitten.

It was with a mom but mom is gone

It's not friendly buy it's not not friendly either. It doesn't seem to know what to think. It tries to run away lol but it doesn't bite or anything like that

 

[KLB]

Dang, I learned Fortran in college.

 

[KLB]

Trust me, for a kitten that is friendly. They will scratch and bite when they are not friendly.

Doesn't matter.

The 3 panels are control panels to an old type sub reactor.

Well, Fortran is a really old language. That was 1983.

I know.
I learned Fortran, Cobol, Basic, and something else, maybe Pascal.

Probably. It was big back then. Toss in Machine Language and you were all set.

Dabbled in assembly language, but no machine language. Except I forget what I used on the z80 nano-processor.

octet... the code that is still being used in some robotics assemblies...

VAX, MS C Basic, VB, COBOL, PASCAL all from days gone by.....

punch cards baby.....

I remember the punch cards and running them to a computer place to get the reports later in the week.

 

[KLB]

COBOL is still in use in many places.

PL1 was another one from back in the day.

I had the "pleasure" of learning FORTRAN77 on punch cards.

Work my life away, will be good to come home to this a few hours a week

Yeah, I'd have to say there are still billions and billions of lines of cobol still running every day in major corps. It's everywhere.
There's probably a crap ton of JCL still going too. God, I hated JCL...

Add FoxPro's mess of vb-ish code to the list of crap from the past.

My absolute favorite dead language is AREV. (Advanced Revelation) That DB system was incredible for it's time. It had master/detail table relations built right into the db at the field level - meaning you could have a single field with multiple items within a single record, if that makes sense. It was awesome. They tried to spin it to a windows version called Open Insight, but I don't think it ever took off.
That's when I switched to Borland's Delphi as a primary IDE.

Object Pascal is far from dead. I've written 10k+ lines of it in the last 6 months for a labor time study system running on 10 inch tablets with a 100% touch screen interface.
And it's the only language I know of currently with an IDE that will cross compile from x86 x64, Mac OS, iOS, and Droid from a single code set.

Yea that sounds good
