I shit you not, IT around 2004, I had a nurse who stored all her important docs in “Recyle Bin”
She put in a ticket that her computer was slow. We scheduled a time to look at it and made sure she knew to be there.
When I showed up, she had left to go to lunch on purpose so she could take a free long lunch. I asked her manager to call her back in, she refused.
I diagnosed she was out of space, and emptied her bin.
That did not end up going well.
She was furious, Her boss was mad. My boss was pissed that it happened but considered it reasonable since she refused to be there.
I spent the better part of 4 hours undeleting deleted recycle bin contents which is WAYYYYYY harder than undeleting deleted files. They’re already UUID’s and bringing them back into existence will not put them back in the recycle bin, all that meta is gone.
Project designer: the project function is self explanatory.

I wish someone make github but for documents. Image your documents can be forked by someone and has many branches and revisions, it must be hilarious.
You can literally just upload a library of documents to github or another repo service like codeberg. That’s basically what a code project is, a bunch of files.
The main difference being that code is typically stored in plain text files, where you can more easily compare and merge differences, while some other document types are harder to
diffusefully. That doesn’t mean you can’t use git to keep their version history, it just means resolving merge conflicts might be a bitch.
