The eternal Windows USB ejection saga continues! That dialog box where Windows claims your device is "in use" but refuses to tell you what is using it is the digital equivalent of saying "there's a problem" without offering any solutions. The suggested button would skip the detective work of hunting down phantom file handles and just command whatever process to release its death grip on your USB drive.

You know that sinking feeling when you casually run git add . and suddenly realize you just staged 47GB of raw training data, node_modules, and probably your entire .env file? Now you're watching your terminal crawl through uploading gigabytes to GitHub while your upload speed decides to cosplay as dial-up internet. The "51 years" is barely an exaggeration when you're pushing datasets that should've been in .gitignore from day one. Pro tip: always update your .gitignore BEFORE the git add, not after you've committed to your terrible life choices. And if you've already pushed? Time to learn about git filter-branch or BFG Repo-Cleaner, which is basically the "oh no" button for git repos.
