Just did rm -rf😖

I don't think i lost anything that isn't pushed to github, except a few small code snippets(but nothing that i cant redo very easily). Hope there are no surprises ahead😢 My heart is still racing😥 Diving into some NLP hoping I will forget the horror in a few minutes 🤞

That shouldn't do a whole lot... rm -rf / is worse, and that only works with sudo and --nopreserve-root or something like that.

I have a script that proxies rm and if it seems the rf flags it asks if I'm sure. Saved me once or twice already.

Good luck getting back up.

My #1 policy when I have to rm - rf anything is to go one directory up and explicitly specify the folder I'd like to delete.

What did you have on 😖 folder?

@electrineer noo the 😖 emoji is another flag!

@CodeMonkeyG Yes I did it now🙈

@iSwimInTheC Ya that's a good one

@electrineer @gitreflog 😂
