This was inspired by a recent customer's non-disclosure agreement. In case you don't know the phrase, this is a short legal document which requires me not to divulge the customer's trade secrets, such as how their programs work.

I drew this today after they read out my email about their forecasts and suggested I draw a cartoon of Greg forecasting.

The people who design programming languages constantly release improved versions. Sometimes, the improvements add a new feature. If this is safer, more efficient, or otherwise better than an older feature, the designer may call the latter "deprecated", and make the system warn you if you use it.

I drew this for my friend Lesley, from Wolvercote.
