That YouTube tutorial told me to skip version control for a month, total disaster
A guy named Mike in a Python tutorial said I didn't need Git until my project got bigger, so I skipped it. At week 5 I broke a script that took 30 hours to build and had zero backups. Has anyone else followed bad advice like that from a popular tutorial and regretted it?

Week 5 is pretty early, and honestly, some people thrive without Git for their first few projects because it forces you to be more careful and deliberate with your edits. If you never broke that script, you'd never learn how painful recovery is, and that pain is the real teacher here. Maybe following bad advice is the fastest way to figure out why good advice exists in the first place.
