- Jtsummers 9y agoCorrect, that works for this example. But if you have a lot of tasks that involve non-filesystem activities you'll end up littering your filesystem with these empty files for every one of them. This can lead to its own problems (fragility, you forgot that `task_x` doesn't generate a file, or it used to generate one but no longer does, etc.).
