Update: I was looking at an old program from 2008 on a floppy disk today.

It was for a simple bracket, and the code was three times longer than it needs to be now. We had to write out every single canned cycle back then. Anyone still have a machine that can even read a floppy?

Remember when a disk error meant real panic.

Found a box of old 3.5 inch disks in my dad's garage last year. My current laptop doesn't even have a drive that can read them, which feels weird to say. The file sizes were so tiny back then, you could fit a whole program on one.
