    Reading the Github issue is so funny.

    Backups don’t always save you — many small teams ship without rigorous backup discipline; for them this is a real loss

    You can avoid this by having good backups.
    Or by inspecting your deps before updating them.
    Or maybe by actually sandboxing your agent instead of letting it run wild?

    Aren’t y’all the ones pushing the “Just ship” mentality? Then revel in it.
    Learn good practices or suffer. 🤷

      I’m just trying to imagine this hypothetical company…

      • They run AI agents without checking what it’s doing
      • They don’t have backups or version control (or they’ve given AI access to delete it)

      What else? Do they leave all their files in memory and only save at the end of the day to make sure a power outage could screw them over too?
      It almost sounds like they want to lose their code.

        It’s not hypothetical anymore, Lately I’ve seen multiple companies running like this first hand.
        Absolute clown show.

      Yeah, you need a local copy, an offline copy, and a copy in another physical location or you’re not backed up.
