The pain I had to go through to get the corporate standard up from 7 to 9 was insane...
"We want a responsive site using web sockets for massive data loads into real-time chart visualisation"
"Cool, so are you going to update to Chrome or IE 9+"
"What! No, don't you test on IE 7!? What kind of web developer can't make a website work on IE7!?"
a day later: *home page with IE 7&8 "your browser is out of date" message*
Passed to PM: "there, works on IE7... off you fuck and get a better browser whilst i develop what you actually want" -
This fucking retarded notion that old software is more stable and secure...
I will force feed 10 year old moldy yogurt to any sysadmin propagating that myth, screaming in their face that it's great for their bowels.
