Pretty sure I'm gonna shoot myself

[HotCheese]

I spent like 7 hours on a project for work and finally fixed it and was going to clean some trash files before backing up and here is what transpired

(~/xdpr)$ rm mlist *
rm: cannot lstat `mlist': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove `crashlogs': Is a directory
rm: cannot remove `data': Is a directory
rm: cannot remove `logs': Is a directory
(~/xdpr)$ rm mlist*
rm: cannot lstat `mlist*': No such file or directory
(~/xdpr)$ ls
total 11K
drwxrwxr-x    6 stsp    stsp        1.0K Nov 24 09:57 ./
drwxrwx---    5 stsp    stsp        1.0K Nov 24 09:57 ../
drwxrwxr-x    2 stsp    stsp        7.0K Apr  6  2005 crashlogs/

drwxrwxr-x    2 stsp    stsp        1.0K Nov 21 21:24 logs/
(~/xdpr)$

Apparently the last time this thign was backed up was over a year ago...

Remember to angle the gun up so the bullet doesn't just fly out the back of your neck.

 

[NoFiX]

Wait!!! Don't shoot yourself until you tell us what the fuck the project was!

Wait!!! Don't shoot yourself until you tell us what the fuck the project was!

There's a redundant DataBase, every night they snyc, and all the crap that causes the DB to generate an error gets dumped to a file, generally because of a syntax error because the thing to sync the DB's is gay,This would parse the syntax and correct it and attempt to push it back through the database again.

Apparently he was trying to get it to delete all files (in the current directory) whose names start with 'mlist', but he made a mistake, inadvertently asking it to delete a file named 'mlist' and then delete everything. As a result, all files were deleted.
