talking about filesystems in reference to a graph that only labels by operating system is very funny
It’s so funny that SQLite is genuinely faster than most traditional filesystems.
I wish there were more experimental operating systems using dbs for the backend. Not many people playing around in this space...

I'll never forgive Apple for making people tech illiterate. Apple's primary goal has been to get more people using their products and a consequence of that is not exposing people to technicalities of computers. Filesystems, data structuring etc. Ease of use has destroyed technical understanding.

My posts, replies, and computer filesystems can only be navigated if you have a solid understanding of the tree data structure and know how to follow it intuitively

The Linux kernel stole some of its ideas about filesystems and namespaces, such as /proc. But Plan 9’s main legacy is something you use all the time and don’t notice it.

Year/month/day is better because then you get proper sorting in computer filesystems by file name. Just make sure you pad with 0s where necessary.
For example: my_file-2026-03-25.png

We work with interns to help them identify and execute an independent project. Ontop of that, there's plenty of boring things we always need help with, but that builds business skills like "making a phone call" or "filesystems: the place where your apps put things".

Current status: My raid array is fixed and it only cost me $20. The agents allege that all the e2e tests pass in an ubuntu vm configured with btrfs and zfs test filesystems (so that I could start testing before the raid array was fixed).

I anticipate they were right, though it's going to somewhat complicated the regression testing to have to check everything on two filesystems instead of one :) It was inevitably going to be a feature request eventually of course.

On Unix, the creation and handling of these devices-as-files was handled by the kernel. On Plan 9, virtual filesystems can be created by any program, and mounted into the filesystem tree by another.

I studied operating systems in uni circa 1998 and they were discussing a better abstraction than filesystems. 1998 is closer to the invention of Unix than it is to today. Somehow, the filesystem abstraction persists.

All my normal distractions are on the workstation that is currently down while its filesystems get rebuilt and I have no idea how to occupy my mind. I should read but I'm just not getting into the right frame for that. (It's not bedtime yet!)

Not sure if it's in current Mac filesystems, but NTFS has alternate data streams - used for stuff like the "this file was downloaded from an untrusted source" kinda metadata.

Correction to my tip: btrfs has no import step. `btrfs filesystem show` only lists filesystems and their disks, handy to check all drives are seen. Then mount it as usual; if it reports a missing device, run `btrfs device scan` first.

would be cute to install PSBBN but it appears my macOS version is too old to compile it successfully orz... there's always Linux for PS2 i guess lul
