   UX designers who eliminated the filesystem from user consciousness in name of simplicity ruined the world and are morally culpable for shriveling minds of children who are unable to tackle the challenges of today thanks to a choice sold as advocacy for the user but was ultimately motivated by control of a disempowered customer.

     A vast everything-belongs-to-the-cloud conspiracy against private data so they can surveil it into the advertising industry's universal spyware.

     @SwiftOnSecurity “ok kids, time to learn about inodes and b-trees” - hmm maybe that’s over compensating.

     The absolute misery and struggles I had teaching basic file management to students back even in like 2015 who had no idea that a file had to exist somewhere when downloaded, and you need to open files to work with them in a GUI tool...

     I felt bad because we wasted so much effort on this at the expense of later topics in #GIS.

     @SwiftOnSecurity I was literally teaching file systems to High School students today, and had to demonstrate to them that their Macs, Androids, and iOS devices have file systems. It was enlightening.
