I can imagine some poor sap who has not yet been born getting his first job in programming around that time. "Yeah, we don't actually do VR code modelling here, so you have to type. Fortunately there's not a lot of typing for this particular job. Your task is to maintain these assembly scripts. They generate a really complicated old text document format, which is then fed to a big old server in our original data center, which is now completely dark apart from this one machine... It's running something called AIX. Nobody knows what that shit is, so don't execute any commands that are not on the safe list."
