I've literally lost two sd cards while moving about in the wild with important code on them in the last 6 months.<p>I think we spend too much time discussing how were succeeding and not enough time discussing how we are failing.<p>For example, its still impossible to paste an image from google search onto twitter...
I agree. Although I’d only use them when forced to eg in a camera otherwise I’d use Dropbox or similar or a USB stick (has its own problems though!). Infact thinking of it almost all sneakernet media sucks: USB sticks bend, floppy disks just fail, external HDDs are ok but clunky, sd as you mentioned sucks, DVD rw is slow and easily damaged.<p>As for image pasting yeah the one that gets me is slacks inability to consume anything but am uploaded local file image. For example if I use the snippet tool in Windows I can’t paste that directly into slack. Probably this one is up to chrome to fix.
