<p>if i hear &quot;trust and safety&quot; i know im about to witness something untrustworthy and unsafe</p>

I recently bought a USB floppy disk drive to see if any of them have anything worth saving (most are magazine cover disks, a few are personal files that were backed up. Some are more fun things like [legal!] copies of MS DOS 6.2, Windows 3.11, and a few versions of Corel Draw). So far, none of them have been readable.</p><p>They are probably fine if I format the, so if anyone had a use case for 80 or so 3.5” floppies, let me know…</p>

<p>denial: skilled programmers can write safe C by being careful<br />anger: unsafe C code is the fault of unskilled programmers<br />bargaining: perhaps a hyperintelligent AI will be able to write safe C code</p>
