A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Even if it's just an archived version, someone somewhere will find utility in IT or coding advice posted over a century ago.

Doubt it. The way Web companies work, they eventually enter an entshitification phase and then die out. Zero chance stackoverflow last until the end of the century.

I used to work for a very old company that still has digitized copies of many, if not most, of its oldest records available for reference. It was surreal looking at internal technical documentation for things that stopped existing 50 years ago

OP said "even if it's an archived version." But sure continue to push your emotional state onto an otherwise unrelated conversation
