Yes, that's what happens when you behave like a twit and they throw the book at you. If you have more pinterest in the subject, I suggest you find a scholarly article on the subject and reddit. You may stumbleupon some interesting information that might make for delicious reading. Alternatively, you may not digg it.

They do have a Princess Protection Program[^]. You can try to enroll.

Why? I am neither a princess, nor do I require protection.

Google "IBM JCL". Any further description (or link to such) would be more appropriate to the Soapbox.

I already did, my ignorance lies in the lack of direct experience with that... I can understand it's hellish but I don't have the pain receptors reflexively triggered

I taught IBM JCL for 2 years. After a while, I actually got to understand why they did things the way they did, and realized that present day classes and configurations are no better.
BTW, IBM mainframes did not get hacked.

Given that TCP/IP was only designed in 1974, that the Internet ("World Wide Web") only took off in the early 1990's, and that very few people can afford to read their mail or surf the 'net on a mainframe, that's not really surprising.

I thought that someone would come up with this, but the fact is that IBM mainframes had security built in that would make most current hacks impossible. I've recently read that some of those security features are now being considered for microprocessors. Sorry, I don't have the details in ready memory right now, but I had to both attend and lecture courses in which those hardware minutia were described in detail.

I'll just leave this here:
PXSelectBase<Account> query = new PXSelectJoinGroupBy<Account,
LeftJoin<SalesOrder, On<SalesOrder.customerAccountID, Equal<Account.accountID>>,
LeftJoin<OrderDetail, On<SalesOrder.orderNbr, Equal<OrderDetail.orderNbr>>,
LeftJoin<Product, On<Product.productID, Equal<OrderDetail.productID>>>>>,
Where<Account.companyType, Equal<CompanyTypes.customer>>,
Aggregate<GroupBy<Account.accountID, GroupBy<Product.categoryCD, Sum<OrderDetail.extPrice>>>>>(this);
A query using a custom ORM from a CRM product we were evaluating last year. It makes LINQ look positively beautiful by comparison.
