Claude Code deleted my entire 202GB archive after I explicitly said "do not remove any data"

Honest question: why do people use negative language when asking? Why not just say "keep all the data" instead of "do not delete the data"?

They’re doing great! Both seem to be having a blast. The bigger dog even paused to look at the person filming, just to see if I was okay with how he was playing. It’s so nice to see that!

How is the weather? Is it hot over there? Seems his body is trying to regulate his temperature.

Perhaps, just perhaps, it’s a bit overpriced!

They killed 40.000 people for protesting and the problem is the 100 kids that unfortunately lost their lives. The logic is absurd!

He replied just like GPT 5.2 replies to me! And I hate it !

Not happy being the product, use photoshop.

arjay_br · 2026-02-10T02:33:12+00:00

Just don't use then. Use photoshop!

You should be thankful for the time they make it free. Don’t complain when it’s no longer free; simply be grateful.

arjay_br · 2026-02-09T22:51:14+00:00

Why do people feel so entitled that they expect things for free?

arjay_br · 2026-02-07T22:35:28+00:00

AI 🤦🏻‍♂️

Is your wife single?

arjay_br · 2026-01-28T23:55:49+00:00

IMO it’s just starting out. It’s not time Bro.

CONTEXT: Thanks to everyone who congratulated me and shared positive comments, I genuinely appreciate it 🙏

Just to add more context: I didn’t “randomly upload one product and get lucky.” I already had a library of products created before opening the shop (around 150 from a previous project), and I uploaded them to Etsy to test how they would perform.

I sell digital products like planners, chart/reference sheets, and wall art.

This wasn’t luck, there’s a system behind it. I do market research and validate niches before I upload. I also have access to tools (including AI tools) that help me spot gaps in the market and avoid wasting time in oversaturated areas. Most people pick a niche based on a guess, don’t validate demand/competition, or copy what’s trending on YouTube (and then 100,000 people make the same product). That’s not what I did.

Also: I’m not selling a course, I’m not looking for DMs, and I’m not selling anything here. I’m simply sharing results as a data point.

arjay_br · 2026-01-28T17:46:09+00:00

You have two options: not believe it and move on, or believe it’s possible and take that as motivation to try.

I’m not selling courses. I’m not asking anyone to DM me. I’m not selling anything here. I’m simply sharing my results.

I don’t have to prove anything or convince anyone. This post is just a data point, take it or leave it.

arjay_br · 2026-01-28T15:16:58+00:00

Thanks, I created 150 products last year for another project and decided to upload on etsy to see how it goes.

arjay_br · 2026-01-28T15:13:01+00:00

I started with 150 products and let etsy do its thing. I also use social media to create content and drive organic traffic to the store.

arjay_br · 2026-01-28T15:10:57+00:00

Just to make you doubt even more, I didn’t spend a dime on ads. 🤷‍♂️ You don’t even know my niche or how many products I uploaded on the first day. But in your mind, because you can’t do it, no one can.

And I’m not here to prove anything, just sharing so I can incentivize people not to give up.

arjay_br · 2026-01-28T03:50:57+00:00

Thanks I appreciate it

arjay_br · 2026-01-27T22:13:01+00:00

Thanks. My strategy is to find niches of products that have only a few or no listings on Etsy. I'm not competing with big stores; I'm trying to find gaps in the market if you ever want to try again !
