Tracy Durnell is apparently reading my mind: Disrupting my reading habits to read more of what I want. She does a far better job of explaining how she’s tackling the problem of information hoarding. I don’t know if I can even try this, let alone succeed at it.
One of the songs in our band’s playlist is Yesterday. One day this year, I’m going to sing it to these lyrics instead:
Yesterday,
All those backups seemed a waste of pay.
Now my database has gone away.
Oh I believe in yesterday.Suddenly,
There’s not half the files there used to be,
And there’s a milestone hanging over me
The system crashed so suddenly.I pushed something wrong
What it was I could not say.
Now all my data’s gone
and I long for yesterday-ay-ay-ay.Yesterday,
The need for back-ups seemed so far away.
I knew my data was all here to stay,
Now I believe in yesterday.
