BTW, who on earth still uses FTP?
I use Transmit to FTP updated files to my web server. Then I send smoke signals to my colleagues to inform them of the changes, and document the updates on a papyrus using quill and ink. Should I be doing it differently?
- astrodust 14y agoYou'd get better results if you lit signal fires. Smoke signals don't work very well at night or on overcast days. I've also found that using parchment makes updates more durable as they weather better.

Papyrus has a standing export restriction from the issuing superpower (Egypt circa 200BC), so if it becomes a superpower again you could be extradited for disobeying the law of a that foreign country that attempted to force an unfair business advantage to the rest of the world.
- glesica 14y agoI actually assumed "smoke signals" was some sort of Mac app that I didn't know about (it actually sounds like it could be a 37 Signals product). I even wondered if "papyrus" was a team-management wiki or the like. Then I got to "quill and ink" and realized you were joking.
- numbsafari 14y agoHe wasn't joking. "Quill and ink" was a Microsoft prototype tablet.
