Is "Yes to all" an unclear statement? I mean, when my OS asks me if it's okay to move some files, and I click on Yes to all I sort of take it at its word. Unfortunately, it's a liar. It askes me again, and again, and again: Yes to all? Yes to all?
Excuse me, but all means...all. Not just this folder. Or until the next file that I want to ask you about again, just in case you'd changed your mind. Seriously, dear operating system, I understand the word "all" and you, clearly, do not.
I know, I know. It's a bit much to expect my computer to actually understand English. And sure, when you increment a number beyond the bit size, some programming languages end up flipping it into a negative number. We did go over that in Fortran class, back in the day.
I guess it's time to go back to the command line.
