Hyper-deflation
April 2, 2007
I threw away a bunch of old software today.
I threw away the CD-ROMs but kept the (plain) sleeves. Ironic, that.
Reminds me of a story I heard: Post-World War II Germany’s hyper-inflation, where someone stole a wheelbarrow full of cash. They stole the wheelbarrow, but dumped the cash.
I’d say this software’s hyper-deflation is about equivalent. (Not to make light of that country’s hardship.)
Software has a life.
