How Has Your Code Aged

Invitation from Pat Wright

For this month’s T-SQL Tuesday, I wanted to once again talk about Aging! But not in the human sense. I mean in the code sense. It’s a simple question that can be interpreted in many ways, and I look forward to all the ways you might see this.

The question is. “How has your code aged?”

Pick a project or code script and decide if it “aged well”. Is it still in use? Is it functioning? Did it do what was needed, and now it’s no longer around? Perhaps talk about how useful it was for the time, but now it would never be needed because of AI or other aspects.

Knowing what we have done in the past and how we have improved is very important to moving forward. It’s also a great time to be grateful for something you created in the past, and perhaps it is still working. Very often in this fast-paced world, we spend all of our time looking at the new project and the next big thing, and we forget to enjoy the things that created the foundation for our future.

I hope you will join this exercise by posting on February 10th, 2026. Please make sure to link to this original post and include the T-SQL Logo on the post. I’ll write up the summary after Tuesday, and we have all the posts listed.
