iterated on my proposal to improve Godot's FileSystem header. give it a thumbs up on GitHub if you too want to get rid of the file path field that is utterly useless!

The children yearn for the filesystem
if you want anyone to know what a filesystem is by the mid-century, you have no choice but to encourage this
This isn't news, kids have been doing this ever since computers were first installed in class rooms/school libraries. www.bbc.com/news/article...
Children hacking their own schools for 'fun', watchdog warns
The Information Commissioner's Office says schools face an "insider threat" from children as young as seven.

Gen Z doesn't Understand Filesystems. It's not their fault.
Apple's early abstraction of mobile data storage has caused...confusion to say the least.
But what does the *real* iOS filesystem look like?
As a researcher myself; it's kind of insanely complicated:

Hello Linux users! What filesystem type is your /home?
Back when I was poking around with filesystem fuzzing stuff years back, I noticed something odd:
An EXT filesystem can tell the Linux OS how it should behave "if" the filesystem is corrupt, including triggering a kernel panic. In a world where USB thumb drives exist, this seems... not ideal […]

The foundation of personal computing is the filesystem.
The foundation of the internet is a networked filesystem.
The foundation of a new social web will likely be a social filesystem. (It remains an ope question if atproto is such a foundation)

It seems a fork lies ahead, is atproto a portable database for a bunch of apps or a new type of post-app, social filesystem?
the whole point of atproto is Authenticated Transfer, I think at least. For others its just data portability

kids these days just don’t understand their computer’s filesystem. gotta organise your files into folders, not just rely on cloud and search!
