A binary format that is only readable by some very specific version of the program writing it. The older xls comes to mind, but there must be thousands of examples.

Claude code is great at figuring out legacy code! I dont get the «for new systems only» idea, myself.

If you can’t deliver to the DLQ, then what? Then you’re missing messages either way. Who cares if it’s down this way or the other?

I cannot recall Obama doing one single thing for peace internationally? Which conflict did he help stop?
