![]() During my PhD I lost 4 months of work for not backing my work.(+2).Instead of deleting an unwanted python version, I accidentally delete python everywhere in my root folder.Having to work on a software dev project without a provided manual.Just the horror of not knowing what i am doing (+3). ![]() Not one horror story, but the daily horror of having multiple versions of the same code named with whatever I changed (+2).Problems on organizing how many changes I am doing in the coding script.Trying to remember what I did to my code 6mo ago (+6).Understanding who modified your code, when, why, and how.Starting a simulation and getting problems related to your machine setup (+1).Having everything on Chalmers virtual drive and then they decided to renovate the whole system in the middle of a big (months-long) simulation.Had to reinstall conda twice in one day (+3).Unmount of remote disklearning randomly with need to reboot the computer more times.Imagine doing an accidental rm -r * in a project directory instead.Installed Conda and broke my normal python workflow (I know I should have started with conda in the first place) (+4).Problem in versioning (lost files and versions) (+4).Hard drive failure + inadequate backups = major file loss (the professional backup before repair also had a failure).Past me had bad data management practices that mean if I ever want to publish some things I have a lot of figuring out what data files are what to do.The lack of skills the IT department has.Fortran 77 compiler changed with Linux update and I couldn't rerun part of my PhD results (you got me with Fortran 77 (: )).Trying to get my CD ROM drive to work in Debian Linux (or on Windows 10 years earlier, had to rewrite the system file).Wanted to push a whole days work to github, accidently deleted everything.I accidentaly removed my PATH environment variable D:.Deleting all my emails from last 5 years, ironically with a mistake in a backup script. ![]() "I made some change and had to spend two weeks figuring out what I broke" (+1) programming with python, data-analysis, research.graphics, rendering, virtual environment.data analysis, script writing, presentations, writing papers, studying.Programming, analysing data, computing stuff (+1).Data engineering, data science and data steward stuff, besides my normal life as researcher (+2).Next-generation sequencing data analysis.Collaborative coding, simulations with ROS2, package reuse and development.Reading papers, typing my assignments, simulating electric fields.Creating simulations and analysing the results (+5).Literate programming for my PhD project and graphical work (+1).Programming, analysing data, computing stuff (+25).Organizing and citing papers (Zotero, EndNote, JabRef) (+15). ![]()
