The 97th edition of De Programmatica Ipsum is out!
This month, Graham wonders whether the idea of a hierarchical file system makes sense at all in 2026; Adrian goes back in time to find the origin of the "everything is a file" moniker; in our Vidéothèque section, Adrian reviews a documentary about the Unix file system on the AT&T Tech Channel; and in the Library section, Graham reviews the Apple Computer, Inc. developer manual explaining the file system in the 1990s.

"Computing needs to become significantly more long-term in its outlook, if we are to play our part in the coming move from a growth economy to a planetary survival civilisation. We need to move from a situation in which we expect people to buy (or lease) a new handheld computer every 1-2 years, even if their existing one works fine."

De Programmatica Ipsum features new articles on the first Monday of every month about the craft of software engineering, and the life of software developers, with a focus on issues like inclusion, burnout, startup life, hype and heresy, and other related topics.
