I guess I’m read for bed. Instead of grep -rin foo I just typed rm -rf foo. What the heck, brain!? O_o Luckily, I just caught it before hitting Enter.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I will occasionally get some command (or even certain arguments for a command) in muscle memory and type it by accident instead of the one I want. It hasn’t been disastrous yet, but it has cost me some time.

I also find that I compulsively type ‘ls’ whenever I’m in a terminal, even if I don’t need it. It’s strange.

@mckinley@twtxt.net I do the ls thing regularly. I even do it after I’ve already lsed the directory but have run some other command afterwards. I tend to think of it like the LOOK command in text adventures.

I would have pressed ENTER 🤣

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci I’m glad it’s not just me.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I’m just saying that in my stupidness and blindness, I would have hit NETEr and went “oh fuck” 😅
