I wonder how you managed revisions to punch cards...

[-] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 3 points 4 months ago

Just tape it over.

How do you view old versions?

[-] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 5 points 4 months ago

Remove the tape.

That's a lot of tape to manage ヽ(ﾟ∀ﾟヽ)

They actually used red tape for that, and this is why burocracy is called red tape, because they had to fill paperwork everytime a code change was needed or reversed.

Easy, pens, eraser, tape and writing comments on the card
