What's a "book"?

Seriously, that argument is like saying that long variable names are bad because sometimes you have to write code on punched cards. The solution to the drawbacks of obsolete technology is to not use obsolete technology.

Books are definitely not obsolete technology, you can consider them old or even traditional but they aren't obsolete by any means.

Books are those things you load on your kindle right? I mean, ya, they aren’t obsolete, but it’s not the main way I absorb information anymore.
