It will only affect if user has a folder named dev at the root of the
drive, but that is highly unlikely ;-)
irb(main):001:0> reader = File.open('/dev/null', 'r')
Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory - /dev/null

from (irb):1:in `open'

=> #<File:/dev/null0>
But it will throw the exception first due the 'r' mode been invoked first.
