Fuck all victim-blamers. "Discard" is not how you label a button that permanently erases anything.
But it didn't erase everything permanently.
We talk about the swiss cheese method in risk management.
This guy hit multiple layers of failure, and he absolutely could recover from it. But instead of getting help, rant about it for all of us to laugh at.
So, elaborate these layers that could've prevented it, and the way to recover from this? I am pretty sure it asks you "Are you sure? YES NO" and doesn't specify anything about deletion.
User disagrees.
