    Back when I was still on Reddit, I made a comment on a chess sub saying that in chess you are not allowed to make your king “commit suicide” to explain how a stalemate works. One day later I got a message about suicide prevention because someone flagged me for promoting suicide.

    What a dumb site.

      I mean in all fairness it was probably a bot that flagged that.

      By the time I left (API shenengigans) Reddit was already a place where bots interacted with bots half the time.

      Yeah, imagine you accidently commit over weeks of work, or hell, if it’s the main branch, and you deleted the other origin branch prior to merging, it could be a lot more than a few weeks worth of work. The revert to a previous commit… shutters.

        That’s when you call in a wizard.

        They do git necromancy and sacrifice a goat to the reflog to recover your code
