Working at this for 30 minutes and I'm still yet to actually put data in front of my eyeballs. A lot of qual research jokes are starting to make a lot more sense to me.

hahaha I opened up the project on the mac after 2 upgrades and a conversion and none of the data was in there. I love this highly productive use of my time. Speedrunning my way into qual research life.

I hope you have a secret copy on an external hard drive?

oh yeah I'm not touching the central team's research copy at all. I'm new to Nvivo but not to staying paranoid when it comes to data management. www.superlinguo.com/post/7439604...

One thing that happened to me once with Nvivo (or maybe it was Atlas.ti) was that I backed my project up in Dropbox so it would automatically sync with "the cloud"; but then the file got corrupted and *the corruption synced too*, making both copies unusable 🙈

Be paranoid. Look at what XS Musk had to everyone's data. Sit on it, keep it safe!
