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.
