That's wild and inspirational. Like the scene in Rush Hour when a stack of bills saves Tucker from a bullet. Though I'm moreso tempted to just create a `.1111a

That's wild and inspirational. Like the scene in Rush Hour when a stack of bills saves Tucker from a bullet. Though I'm moreso tempted to just create a `.1111aaaa-antidumb` directory and store my caches and backups there. This has also un-inspired me from creating a fast `rm`-esque utility.

You could of course alias rm -rf to rm -rf -i

  I always use trash-cli and alias rm to 'echo NO! #'. Only if the file is too big to fit into the garbage bin, I can unalias rm, rm the thing and then reset the alias immediately after.

    fwiw you can usually bypass aliases ad-hoc. In Bash I believe instead of `ls` you can `\ls` to get the unaliased version.

      You can also use the full path to the program, enclose it in quotes, or call "unalias ls" to disassociate it for that shell.

  There is also safe-rm https://adamheins.com/blog/a-safer-rm https://adamheins.com/blog/a-safer-rm

  I thought -f cancels out -i, and when you alias "rm=rm -i", and then run "rm -rf" you get "rm -i -rf" and -f is last so it still wins.
