boomercode 

Shitty code written by the previous generations of programmers (typically Boomers) that did nothing but produce technical debt for millenials and Gen Z programmers to clean up, thus killing the thrill and joy they expect to find based off of several popular YouTube programmers chronicling their lives at more modern tech companies. Most often you will find this regards developers who were huge advocates of a specific vendor that is notorious for pushing sub-par software packages on the industry for profit (e.g. Microsoft, Oracle, IBM).

Typically stacks filled with boomercode feature a wide set of redundant infrastructure, overengineering, technical debt and obscure proprietary softwares with no real value, such as EDI. The authors of such code typically also mock modern web standards and design practices. All while being unable to give a coherent explanation of their design choices.

Modern Developer: So boomercode
