There's truly nothing more
[liberating](/tdro/messages/oneliner/#tdro-messages-oneliner) than deleting all
of your work by mistake (or having it deleted). That's why it never
[hurts](/tdro/messages/distributed/#tdro-messages-distributed) to have multiple
distribution (and backup) strategies. A newer way is invented every day:

```shell { caption="The [oldest rm](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15731036/gcc-a-c-o-a-c-in-what-way-can-i-restore-the-real-c-file) in the book?" }
gcc -o delete-this-file.c
```
