Don’t Let Anyone Take Away Your Big Box of Cables - Jim Nielsen’s Blog

So much depends upon the box of cables.

Recently rediscovered this as I did some reorganization. This is also an opportunity to reaffirm Chesterton’s Fence.

Dont get rid of a cord until you know what it goes with and you dont need the thing it goes with any longer. It takes up basically zero space if you twist tie it and place it in a special unknown cables box seperate from cables which you know or can easily visualy infer what they go with

I guess I don’t have such a box, my box is full of USBs câbles: A / B / C and derivates like the disgustings 3.0 versions of USB micro-B and B
