Yep exactly why you use vcs and push to a remote branch before you test anything that has the possibity of file removal

@jckimble yeah ! But sometimes I have this problem: Error 404! Brain not found !

@popeye old days? Just happened a few days ago to me. FML.

I read "ran it" as "rant it" at first.

Early in my programming days, I thought I would be clever and set up an alias em=emacs.

Now, I neglected to notice the fact that the "e" and "r" keys are adjacent, and could be errantly transposed were one in a hurry with one's left hand was slightly off the home key.

That fact was brought to my attention one day when I intended to type "em *.c" but instead typed "rm *.c"

Revision control saved me, but I never considered that short-lived alias again.
