I have 200 unsaved notes just waiting in the memory guillotine for when something accidentally wipes them. I salute you, Notepad++.

It's so bad but so good. It's like a poweruser variation of keeping important stuff in the recycle bin.

White knuckle, tightrope note taking. I just do it for the rush.

If you can't lose all your work in a freak data corruption incident are you even working?

My physical notepads aren't much better, every page is a new context, and despite my best efforts they don't seem to be in chronological order.

Todays notes are on top but everything older is "somewhere".

I've restored my N++ session of unsaved notes from backup more than once.
