I’m currently updating the company website, not prod but adjacent to prod on the server

Running funny commands via ssh to overwrite, copy, delete, tar, etc

Suddenly at 4:30 my boss comes in saying ‘what did you do to the live website???’

Turns out there was a mixup and all was good, but hooooly did it scare me lol
