Hmm… theoretically this is more efficient, however in practice you may end up with a dirty cache… I guess that’s fine if you don’t mind corruption of your coworkers.
I’ve got 5 levels of “clean”. I think anyone who can’t understand is crazy… Most people can’t understand my system
I thought L3 was neat and L4 was cool, but L5 is just next level.
This is a semi-good LPT. You can save a lot of time and grievance by just not folding your clothes and throwing them into piles (inside boxes or drawers, preferably) by type (socks, underwear, shirts, etc). Bonus tip - if you have a spot where dirty clothes keep piling up (used to be bedroom for me), just put a laundry basket there (in the exact spot you discard your dirty clothes).
If you hate doing laundry, get a dryer and do this, it will make it so much easier. It becomes transport your basket from your aggregation area, dump it in the washer, throw in a random amount of whatever washing thing around, set an alarm on phone, throw it in the dryer, second alarm, take it to your usage pile(s). Turns laundry from tedious into barely a chore.
I recently upgraded to the new GE all in one washer dryer. Removes a massive step of having to move clothes between dryer and washer. Toss em in, and 2 hours later they’re done. Best part is they can be tossed in before bed and ready in the morning for work!
But the pile now has to be sorted upon access, and depending on the query (such as trying to find matching socks), this will likely become wildly inefficient.
That’s why I only own black socks, and just wear jeans, t-shirt and hoodie/shirt
I worked with a guy who had 5 sets of the same work clothes. Wore the same outfit everyday, and yes it was all black head to toe.
I never did verify if he actually had 5 sets of clothes or just liked washing one pair everyday, but he never stank so whichever it was worked out.
I’ve got work “uniforms”, and weekend “uniforms”. Probably 7 or 8 changes of each, but all the work clothes are identical and all the weekend clothes are identical.
I look ageless in photos cause I always have the same stuff on, and getting dressed is so easy. Probably no good for people who care about fashion though. Glad I don’t tbh, shits expensive and wasteful.
he probably had 25. Ive maybe 6 of one shirt, 5 of another, three or four of a few others, 15 pairs of pants. All the shirts are black, gray, black in a different material, or gray in a a different material. Pants are all black or blue. Jackets all black. 100 pairs of the same sock. I can dress in the dark and everything matches.
That’s a ridiculous amount of clothes! 15 pairs of pants…WTF!?
I have 5 t-shirts for private use, 2 for work, 3 shirts, 2 pairs of pants and maybe 10 pairs of socks…
They pile up over time if you buy quality clothes and stay the same size. maybe 5 are in “Oil change and mechanical work” condition now.

5x work shirts, 5x work pants, bagged/black t-shirts and fisherman pants for home, all black socks. L1 cache is the drier. L2 is the shelf next to the drier. There is nothing beyond L2.
I just wear band-shirts, black Levis 501 jeans and hoodies/plaid shirts. Cargo shorts in the summer, idgaf if I’m fashionable. I like the way I dress, so does my SO 😃
…wait, you just throw socks onto the pile without putting matching pairs together beforehand? I’ve learned that an alternate universe exists, and I’m not okay with it.
You half-ass the folding of your clothes and then throw them into a pile anyway?
I roll the ankles together when I take them off, then wash them like that. They usually come out of the dryer still together
That’s a good idea!
“Sorted upon access”? When adding to the pile, I make sure I can still see a piece of every article of clothing. Random access is only grabbing and yanking.
Adding is O(n log n), removing is O(1)
There is also coat hanger trees.
Shamelessly stolen joke. Here’s the original tweet, which I think is much better too: https://twitter.com/0xAsync/status/1607541407937339392

I hate being messy, but it was a annoyingly-funny-clever reasoning.
