Scary...
This reminded me of when a game crashed while saving, making me lose not just unsaved progress, but also corrupting the save, meaning i lost all the saved progress up until that point too.
I simply don't understand how people can not be regularly saving and then also back it up too. It might take an extra minute or two, but compared to losing tens or hundreds of hours of work, it's worth it.
Don't trust autosave, don't trust cloud storage uploads, don't trust that saving something actually worked, verify it yourself!

... I remember seeing a similar post months ago...
Save your stuff!

Untitled Document 1? You don't name your projects before you even start? That's how you stay motivated!

I was finally able to close it by transferring the text over to a more permanent scratch paper document I keep
...no
...I think I'll keep it open

this one is to be killed without mercy

How many eternal text files do you have open at once...

not OP but a buddy of mine said he does all of his code in a single instance of notepad++ without ever saving or closing it, and he's been doing that for at least 5 years

>>5390
how does he run the code if he doesn't save it

>>5382
well it's zero NOW that my session died of RAM exhaustion

As God intended. For me, while I appreciate and use notepad++ a lot for writing stuff on it, for coding I just use vscodium.

The next level would be using a single instance of nano, or vim.
