Raghav, I love this post! I was reminded of the first-time email crash, which I believed heralded the Apocalypse and then my first computer crash, which spiraled me directly into the 7th Ring of Hell. Little did I know the future would deliver us unimaginably vast spaces for storage + the heavenly "cloud" with the promise that our precious data would be safe. Technological advances that upped the stakes--more storage = more to lose. Thirty-five years later I can only appreciate how living through the crashes and losses became the recovery template from losses in other areas of my life. It's not always immediate, but yes, I'm.
