I'm all for progress in technology but sometimes there's a disconnect between planning/budgeting and how it progresses way so fast like when it has a large corporation supporting it's development but folks are writing apps with like two person teams and sustaining these projects for years and need to decide "is today the day I rewrite the whole project to bring it up to date or do I fix that one bug and implement that feature the customer wants?". I swear just keeping code up to date is at least one or two FTEs but it's never included in a budget.
