I use a paper A5 atom notebook. You can easily rip out pages and rearrange them. I mostly use it for quick todos, db relation schemas and writing down some logic.

I do take some notes with Apples Notes but I periodically clean them out. I don't see the benefit in keeping old notes. If a project is done the notes are also deleted / trashed.

Why do people keep their 5 year old notes anyway? From a IT programming perspective anything that old is probably out date and not relevant.

Ha the beauty of calling defrag.exe and hoping your pc would run faster after it. So relaxing to see blue block move around (with the occasional horror of a red block indicating an error)

The article missed the best part, you could install Windows 2000 from 4 floppy disks!

I've used it a lot in my younger years, it only was manageable after SP4. God those updates took forever

This reminds me of the Factory Girl vs FactoryBot after #metoo movement.

I'll go create a gem called covid now and wait for the fireworks...

What I always learned about Da Vinci was that he was a pacifist. He was employed as a "military engineer" but he saw himself more as a scientist [1]. It's also debatable if those "errors" were left on purpose to prevent his work for being copied or it where real errors.
