> Everyone should have backups of all their important files, and this is never (solely) to protect them from the dangers of 'opening in a text editor', but to protect them from accidental corruption or loss from any cause.
Nobody said they opened an important file, stop trying to make it sound like the user is stoopid
What if you want to open a temp file you copy pasted from a blog post, you don't back up this, you can go back and copy/paste again, but the fact remains, the software is trash

Yeah, again the user is the one to blame, not the stoopid software that is broken and needs pre-release flags to function correctly
They can nuke my computer too because it is a "pre-release flag" after all, what, you don't backup your whole computer? you stoopid user
Loosing time, being disrespected by software company who spit bloated trash at you and then blame you for trying to make said software a little bit better
- Jedd 5y ago> Nobody said they opened an important file, stop trying to make it sound like the user is stoopid Are you trying to say 'stupid'? I'm not asserting the user is stupid, but I am expressing bewilderment that someone with the requisite technical skills to be in the position they're in (refer my post above) would _not_ have their code in source control, and/or (better yet) backed up on a different machine. I'll also assert that anyone that states they wish to recover a file has, by definition, just assigned some importance to that file. If you read that guy's (TavakoliAli) later comments you'll see they don't have enough time to rewrite that file. At 3k lines, that's no wonder, but further confirms my point.
