I like the joke, but my pile of clothes is entirely about things that I want to reuse. They're too dirty to hang back up in the wardrobe, but too clean to throw in the dirty clothes basket. I'm sure there's an analogy someone could make for this, but Async's analogy doesn't work in my case.

Isn’t RAM for stuff you’re kinda using or keeping open to use in the future? Otherwise you’d put it away/save it to a disk.

l1 cache is a cache for ram and ram is a cache for hdd/ssd

They're too dirty to hang back up in the wardrobe

Why? Can they smear other clothes?

As I suspected, but thanks for the confirmation!

If I wear a shirt for like 30 min and it’s not really dirty yet, I’ll hang it on the for right facing left. All of the clean clothes face right so I know at a glance. When I wear it again it’s dirty no matter what.
