      Hard copies. You should always keep hardcopies of your most important documents, financial records and certifications. Especially when users can be locked out of a cloud storage these days because an AI decided to flag their account.

          Same. But I still keep critical paper work in a fireproof safe, just in case.

          I recently learned that SSDs do not reliably store data for long amounts of time when unpowered.

      When I can’t wrap my head around a technical document or journal article, I print it. My brain craves paper. I’m a software engineer, so believe me that I would be live inside the computer if I could.

        😮 I definitely read better on my smartphone than on big paper, I always get lost if the medium is too large…

      I’ve heard cybersec guys say they print off things like recovery codes and keep the physical copy stored. Also, entire governments still run on pen and paper (shitty inefficient governments).

        " And every citizen that’s living in this city Is a digit on the charts we’re climbing Political systems are too inefficient They split like the atom and burned in the fission Now every department and every decision Defer to the herds of our corporate divisions " shitty inefficient governments are probably better than otherwise
