How do you deal with a boss who is stuck in the past?
cperciva: A significant portion of the application has already been coded by my boss ... his many years of C experience ... I am continually refactoring his code ...Several responses come to mind here:1. Unless you're working for a very unusual startup, your time would be better spent writing new code rather than refactoring existing code.2. You speak of experience as though it's a bad thing.  It's possible that your boss knows what he's doing.3. Ultimately, he's the boss.  If you don't like his code and he doesn't like your suggestions, either quit or be fired.How the the HN community deal with these situations?I think the usual solution here is to quit and start our own companies where we don't have to put up with a boss we don't like. :-)
