Sorry for taking a while to answer this, but yesterday I didn't have my TM

What do you mean by
I have in the past disliked Time Machine. In those days I had a regular hard

meaning that it was backing up continuously, and noticeably affecting the

I use Time machine for local backups and all my LC dev files are on Google

There's another level of recovery I made available in lcStackBrowser. It's
not made for backups per se, more in the way of keeping temporary

That redundancy is probably a good idea. Backup services fail, media
fails, all sorts of things can happen.

Very good suggestion. I do have a time machine backup, but it is not in the
office, it is at home so I can lose a days worth of changes that way. I will
look into that.

Solutions like dropbox are good, but would either need you to manually back
things up, or maybe an Automator script to copy important files over. With Time
Machine I have a less than one hour old backup of any file I might need, not
just the ones that I think I will need, or remembered to copy
I keep all my projects on Time Machine, but current projects are also on
Dropbox, which I often use to share work with customers. File that are
in Dropbox are automatically updated when you change them. There is no
need to update them manually.

That's true for those versions you intend to never use. :)

Truth is, I develop side projects. It’s never actually been my job description,

What I develop is primarily for my own use and convenience. I wish I were more

NVM I discovered there is a file of the same name ending in a tilde (~) which
is a backup of the corrupted file. I was able to open it in 7.0 and save in the

I'm sorry you experienced in issue. We've not had any reports of stack

I would like to recommend to you using Dropbox and putting your stacks into its

Hello,
Sorry Ben, but you’re wrong.
Take a look at bug #13554 (stack corruption).
It has been marked as a duplicate of bug #13593 (gradient disappearing - don’t
know why a stack corruption is a duplicate of this one).
And what’s really funny: neither the first or the second one has been fixed
