What a ridiculous thing to say. Just jump to a different domain. Being a newbie in a new field removes any "target" you might have.
I was an engineering manager in the DoD world, managing teams that built C4ISR systems. I jumped from there back into straight front-line software development in the EDA world. I later jumped again into the fintech/regtech world.

... until the replacement is in...
lol, it's pretty typical that the replacement will arrive in approximately infinity years. OP is completely safe working on legacy code.
The biggest fool of them all of the one who just mindlessly opposes everything because they think that makes them look smart.
That's hardly indisputable, or else nobody would dispute it. On the contrary, I see a distributing tend towards authoritarianism from the American right. And so, for that matter, does everybody who knows enough history to have a right to an opinion.

Because, the computer peaked in 1983!

Wow. If you believe all that you must be stupid or drunk or something.

Ah, I see we have an inexperienced emacs user here.
> The world has changed.
People keep trotting out this dumb saying, but they never indicate whether it's changed for the better or for the worse.
In this case, in the context of this topic, the change has demonstrably been for the worse.
> I bet if Emacs was rewritten using Electron, javascript instead of elisp,
Provided that there would be an embedded elisp interpreter in the javascript source that provides the same execution environment that emacs currently provides, then I'd be all for this idea.
Itâ(TM)s because they erroneously assumed that you werenâ(TM)t an ignorant rube.
If you're married, it is generally presumed that things are owned jointly. So, "our" phone.
If it's a child and you are their guardian, it's generally "my phone" even if it was a gift or someone gave it to them.
For the vast bulk of my career, I've worked remotely. This lets me get paid in Northern VA dollars without paying Northern VA prices. Effectively it's a 25% income boost. The only extended job search I had was when I worked on-site for a company as a contractor for 4 months while I looked for a permanent position working remotely. I actually live about 90 minutes from Northern VA (Fredericksburg, VA) so I can go in if I have to, but the houses are still half the price.
In the 90's, I worked for a hospital that shall remain nameless. Their billing system had a root password of "Superman", and the vendor (on whom they leaned for everything) wouldn't let them change it. They also assumed phone lines were secure (which is a joke.)
I'd imagine things are better now, but there was really a total lack of security awareness at that time.
