Computer Files Are Going Extinct
Although it’s somewhat ironic that this article was written on Medium, this is a very good rant on obsolescence of files:
I love files. I love renaming them, moving them, sorting them, changing how they’re displayed in a folder, backing them up, uploading them to the internet, restoring them, copying them, and hey, even defragging them. As a metaphor for a way of storing a piece of information, I think they’re great.
