Luck and databases
A friend once told me that luck was an invisible substance that he chose to apply to himself as an alternative to proper preparation.
I seem to have much the same attitude when it comes to websites. Oh sure, I could have made a back up, but I chose to chance it. On one hand I consider myself quite lucky that I was able to install what needed to be installed, and on the other hand, a bit disappointed in my inability to fully apply that invisible substance to preserve my earlier posts.
I’m almost positive that there’s a zen lesson in here.
