annual reminder to clean up your work laptop
A Slack message reading: cleaned out my laptop today. my most mystifying discoveries: • a gzip file called `P`, apparently containing only a 2GB binary also called `P`, that can't be extracted due to data corruption • 7 pictures of Jeb Bush • The Sumerian war inscription by Entemena of Lagaš, except my browser won't render the cuneiform so it's useless • A binary called `help` that immediately segfaults when run • An extreme-hi-res aerial photography shot of Yogyakarta International Airport
