Some of my coworkers were talking about using RSS to read blogs, which made some of the younger folks in our team ask what it is and why we keep using it.

Some still use iPods to avoid subscriptions and streaming services, my favorite was one of our sysadmins who showed me Gopher.

I’m curious about others though, thanks!

    CSV is honestly one of my preferred ways of stacking up data. It’s so easily transferable between languages and systems. It’s always human readable too! There are older tools that I work with that spit out “fixed-width” formats, but then go and fuck it up by not aligning the headers to the columns making parsing is a pain in the ass. CSV would be so much better.
