It needs a filesystem for the same reason they were invented for computer
Why would that be true? It is a cool analogy but implying that it is the reason requires much more.
- renewiltord 4y agoWithout taking a stance on whether it's right, I believe that is explained right after your quote cut-off.
- sorokod 4y agoThat the biology of processing DNA is subject to similar constraints and solutions computer have dealing with disk storage is remarkable. Justification is needed.
- bronson 4y agoAt a coarse level, both are affected by information theory, so some parts may look vaguely similar. Sure, it’s plausible you’d find related solutions, especially if you really squint. But it’s like trying to explain how atoms work using a solar system analogy. It might help with the really easy stuff, maybe? (orbitals) But sticking with it makes going any deeper pretty confusing.
