OP TDS translates {I hope & perhaps indicates} to {Trump tells}? That is a {tell}! IRS under Obama suppressed approval of conservative nonprofits before his 2nd term. DOJ under Biden sought to keep leading opposition candidate in court with 91 indictments/charges & efforts to keep him of ballots & seize his assets in NYC & specious salacious charges, all of which then Democrat Dershowicz called {novel thought crimes} in his book {Get Trump} In concerted Lawfare and MSM attempts to squash him reelected. Longer term Trump endorsements were mixed, but denial was context missed was true that recent Senate successes were 100%, replies in comments here are in public denial about . Inconvenient truth Is border illegal invasion and influx is stopped and fentanyl deaths down materially and tax cuts on tips and overtime and Social Security and expanded Child tax credits and Trump accounts and NATO 5% defense/seld-help to Ukraine & promised investment commitments are popular as was removing China inserting itself into Panama Canal and Maduro removal reinvigorating Venezuela. Largest reduction in violent crime in U.S. history, and U.S. trade deficit reduction by $100B per o lowest point in 20 years are huge lifts to USA future prospects. I was a Democrat for decades but willful ignorance & blindness to USA success is an insult to refuse to acknowledge reality. Between Venezuela & Iran, discounted oil supply to China slowed and Dulled their subsidized undermining of our domestic production. Iran drone supply to Russia dulled Russia ability to kill Ukrainians. Middle East is looking like more Abraham accords may be added. All in all, that is a materially significant first two years when Congress wonâ(TM)t pass MAGA agenda items. Not too shabby at all. Fortunately for Democrats, MSM wonâ(TM)t acknowledge that in time for midterms. But deep state kangaroo courts shut down under Biden, (Chevron Deference) and some Trump 2nd term regulatory relief to small businesses and civil rights gains (stopping anti-Semitism) provides MAGA movement some converts, from independents & even some ex-Democrats like RFK jr & Dershowicz & Comedian Bill Maher, while still classical liberal old school Democrat, thinks party left him as Regan, RFK Je, Elon Musk, Trump, & I believe?

COBOL compiler option (ADATA) dumps all data structures and logic elements heuristics in a machine-readable format so the output of ADATA (to output stream SYSADATA, can be easily captured in a file. What good is that? We loaded SYSADATA so âoeeverything the compiler knewâ was stored in RDBMS tables, graph DB would have been better perhaps. I used SAS but a fellow who worked for me wrote parser in COBOL. It allowed unambiguous searches, and cross-references, ensuring corresponding data structures had same offsets and type & length & occurrences. Point is, AI doesnâ(TM)t have to read source & parse it. Provably correct representation of logic data elements is readily available with perfect precision & accuracy, no ambiguity or inference needed. And in COBOL-land, when a new compiler version comes out, they âoere-compile the worldâ & run regression tests with pretty exhaustive aged & representative test data, ensuring all edge conditions fire. (Once burned, twice smart) All this gives wonderful parallel regression tests bed, so reverse-engineering COBOL, even Object Oriented COBOL & forward-engineering into Some other language is pretty well testable. We did COBOL to Java to run on mainframe manually, & utility compared of same input has byte-equivalent & hash & crc verification of full equivalent output for batch jobs, after linkage editor & scheduler & SMF/RMF/DB2 traces all Included too. But GIGO, youâ(TM)ve reproduced same bugs & need to maintain both manifestations for a bit as performance & thruput & concurrency & security & reliability & maintainability & etc. all are baked in. So can & has been done. Should you? Maybe move functionality to data as triggers; store procedures; constraints; user-defined types & functions or skip O-O step & go to declarative erlang for full parallelism?

Too true. Guaranteed employment opportunity Attracted many w/COBOL âoeexpertiseâ!

Close enuff for government works

Curious why VM want ported to desktop. My electric utility consolidated 26 area work centers into one central one, and used OS/2 to have bill with usage graph displayed by third ring along with any notes customer scribbled on letter or on bill, before they even picked up phone. The multitasking OS was far superior

Body cams for legislators needed like for cops. Much like watching trained seals or penguins at the zoo live cams. Only more nauseating- for punishment only like Clockwork Orange or for insomniacs.

We can even help if all ADATA Cobol compiler outputs of data structures & logic/heuristics and linkages and scheduler and SMF logs or Unix logs and scripts open up after scrubbing for privacy & national security. We can get IT done .. retirees did y2k when they said it would never get done. Iâ(TM)ll even admit to some assembler coding I had running in production in this century, and many delivered object-oriented in later dayze, and ETL toolkits of every flavor, of patented data & quality innovations which may be leveraged if companies permit US.

We donâ(TM)t need DOGE, if, after some obfuscation and info hiding for privacy & security, if government published all line items and transactions in RSBMS, all of US could hit with SQL and/or query & BI toolkits & MSFT powerAutomate & Power BI or favorite toolkit of choice to query for insights. Open their kimono so we can look under covers! One company published entire line item budget line items, and âoeaskâ was reduced by 9 million from prior year thanks to peer pressure! Go public & put on data.gov so all can see. Like myenvironment government site has all detail from every stack and point pollutant down to gnatâ(TM)s ass level of detail by zip code, although nobody knows this before buying or renting a home or apartment or college hunting. Body cams for all legislative elected officials and senior staff and live cams in every meeting and conference rooms and hallways and stairways and outside gathering areasâ¦would be ever so much more entertaining than live cams at zoos on trained seals & penguins! Sunshine/Visibility is best disinfectant. This will convince US all we need to repeal 17th Amendment ASAP to Drain Senate ASAP to Fix US! Let 300 Million citizens and international analysts analyze the data for US! A data warehouse or data lake or open api fabric is needed ideally, but we bit-smashers can hit whatever they got if data layouts by versions over time are provided with data store data dumps. Open IT up!

IBMâ(TM)s Z/DB2 has native JSON & XML support⦠Oracle USED to store ZML as BLOB but DB2 could index on any piece/part. Teradata has some government data warehouses. Graph databases might help track flow for source and target of funds, albeit DB2 does better job on bi-temporal support as well. I wanted to put in a good word for what Oracle does betterâ¦cross platform data replication to/from competition was all I came up with? Anyone?

Need more dam breakers to clear plumbing!

You trying to imply Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards wouldnâ(TM)t be preserved due to European censorship ?

Using Agile it should have all the data needed to prove WFH boosts productivity materially & significantlyâ¦.so obviously that isnâ(TM)t their reason, it is sphere of influence & control.

Clever way to separate weak from strong. Any of those ABLE to find a job elsewhere will. I was WFH for my second 12 years, and last 3 working in premises was earful, that cut my productivity at least in half.

Well, not for Democrats! For MAGA, it should be in first 2 MEGA_MAGA bills. I WAS Democrat for decades & even a legislative intern & I USED to believe their lies also. Until they refused to impeach Majorkas & voted to deny medical care to born alive survivors of botched abortions, I might have given them benefit of much doubt! Never again. Never ever again. Ever.
