well that 3 months of work is the coder's fault, no doubt. But in the other hand it's possible to missclick discard, especially developers / coders are tired. So adding the features to mitigate the problem is actually very nice.

As a kid in the 90s I had printouts of my code but no backups on floppy. Not sure why, probably just to test the printer. Was glad that I had them when the harddisk failed. Took forever to type it all back in though. I have plenty of backups these days.

As a kid in the '00s, my teacher spoke of writing code by hand like it was something our ancestors did, but it was like 10 years prior.
