The MUMPS database is wild. When I was working in MUMPS, it was so easy and fun to whip up an internal tool to share with my coworkers. You don't have to give any special thought at all to persistence, so you're able to stay in the flow of thinking about your business logic.
But as you said, the language itself is almost unbearable to use.
I had a professor who is responsible for a lot of the more "modern" MUMPS stuff (lets be real, MUMPS is OLD!). Guy was pretty unbearable too.
If he is innocent and a victim as much as everyone else in all this, I won't blame him for wanting blood.
Most of us are humans after all, and being social creatures we tend to take violations of trust quite deeply.
Truly seems that way currently. He said he'd really dig in starting next week and just checked his email on vacation and saw this whole mess.

Hey Mitchell,
Best of luck in the future! I'm a nobody - but I was around in the packer days and wrote a post-processor and terraform provider for our vsphere back in the day. I don't think I'd be where I am now without those experiences. Thanks!

Surely it must be easier this time to build something like Facebook today right?
I can't imagine it wouldn't be easier to build something like early FaceBook today. There was no GCP / AWS / Azure / whatever back then. We were still racking servers, and we liked it.
How that works with banking apps? What can they do without an account? Maybe a web view to the home page of the bank.
As someone who works in banking - We don't show anything other than login and enrollment (and maybe a link for account opening, if the FI has it). Apple has yet to complain.

I fail to see how this is related at all to laravel.

Bro stop spamming your stuff on HN and figure out how to use fucking padding. All of our posts are slammed left and it looks like there's CSS missing.
we need an environment where new people can get these stories faster
i mean a place where stories are repeated and a different place where new stories are put up
that makes things interesting as well i guess
