And I Don't Believe Ctrl+S Either

And I Don't Believe Ctrl+S Either
The eternal betrayal of Ctrl+C! You've just spent 20 minutes crafting the perfect SQL query, hit Ctrl+C to copy it... and then stare in horror as your clipboard contains "how to center a div" from your Google search 3 hours ago. No programmer in their right mind trusts Ctrl+C without the sacred verification ritual: triple-clicking to select, re-copying, and then frantically pasting into Notepad just to be 100% sure.

Trust Issues: A Developer's Relationship With Clipboard
The evolution of a developer's paranoia in three stages: Peasant tier: Using the mouse to highlight, right-click, and select copy/paste like some kind of digital caveman. Intermediate tier: Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V keyboard shortcuts. Efficient. Respectable. Enlightened tier: Ctrl+C pressed five times followed by Ctrl+V because the clipboard has betrayed you too many times before. Trust nothing. Verify everything. The real senior developers don't even trust their own keyboard inputs anymore. Not after... the incident .
