Simple Unixy mistakes that will ruin your day

[dgdimick]

My personal biggest mistake is not double checking the command before hitting "return".



I've accidentally done

Code:

rm -R / intended-dir

and the like, just enough times to be now ever mindful of it.

For some reason when I type fast, I insert spaces and mix up . / and space.

You haven't lived until you've done a
"rm -rf /*.*"
Makes your day so much fun..
