File names with spaces? The digital equivalent of walking through a minefield with flip-flops. Back in the dark ages of computing, putting a space in your filename was basically asking the terminal to have an existential crisis. Nothing like typing cd My Documents only to have bash look at you like you just suggested we should indent with emojis. Even now, with all our fancy modern OSes, that little voice in your head still screams "ESCAPE THAT SPACE OR DIE" whenever your finger hovers over the spacebar while naming a file. Old programming trauma never heals—it just gets wrapped in increasingly complex compatibility layers.
