I am rereading the science fiction novel "A Fire Upon the Deep", and
laughing again at one character's job title, "programmer archaeologist".
His job was to go through libraries of old code and find useful routines.
Since so much current-day programming involves updates to legacy code, it
does have an archaeological feel at times.
