Yeah so I typed rm -f * the other day after typing rm -f *~ repeatedly in a few different directories. In the 2 seconds it took me to realise, I lost a lot of data. First time I've made that particular typing slip-up in many years. Thankfully I had backups to restore from. Real heart-sink moment. Sure, there should have been aliases for rm -i and I shouldn't have used -f etc etc etc. But sometimes this stuff is going to happen.
