Always Back Up

My father used to say I bought lesson is the best kind if you don’t pay too dearly. Last night I was once again learned a lesson that has been talk to me over and over again. Maintaining proper backs up is crucial to the success of any project.

While working Visual Studio Community last night, my surge protector decided it would be a good time to fail. It’s cause my system to do a sudden reboot and boot looping that you do too my overclock Ram causing instability. After some UEFI bios tweaking, I got my system once again running 3.9 ghz with ram clocked at 3066 mhz and stable.

Unfortunately I’m about 50% of the work I have completed using Unity’s Hybrid ECS architecture has been corrupted. While only a few early prototype scripts were all that was lost, it was enough to make me yell at myself for not having a backup. One of the most important things a programmer needs to maintain proper backups all files. You never know when a hard drive might fail, power outage, or you just need to go back to a previous clean version other section of code.
