> Maybe if you had to say "DELETE" out loud when hovering over the "are you sure you want to delete this?" confirmation to verify it. I think that's almost useful, but better if it displays and asks you to echo a key fact that helps you recognize an action as important and/or confirm it's what you intended. Typing is fine; no need to do voice recognition. * the number of machines your action will affect (for cluster management tools) * the amount of traffic (qps, Mbps, etc) you'll affect (for routing changes, taking down servers, etc.) * the amount of data you're deleting (some rounded form is fine) in files, bytes, database rows, etc. * since someone else mentioned deleting a github repository: the repo's number of unique commits (ones not found in the repo it was forked from), issues, PRs, or even just stars/forks. * the number of people you're adding to or removing from an ACL group / mailing list
