Meth Lab found inside Muncie, Indiana Walmart Restroom.[^]
What? 
(NOTE: It's a full meth lab in a backpack. But still, WHY???)

Makes sense to have the lab located near both the supply and the customers.

So I was writing my new blog post, for about an hour, maybe more, non-stop typing... Then I wanted to look something up. And apparently I did that in the same page as my blog. Blog gone. No auto-save, no "are you sure you wish to leave this page?" popup. No nothing 
I can hit back in the browser and it will return to my blog, but it only saved my introduction...
What editor doesn't have some kind of auto-save in 2015? A really very bad one.
What person doesn't have his work backed up in 2015? Someone using a really very bad editor (and someone who doesn't save his work every five minutes).

Well... I use the online editor of Wordpress and that does save the posts in drafts. I have never used wordpress offline (or the CMS) because of PHP.
Seems like, ASP.NET once again saved my sigh,

I use the online editor too. The Beep Beep Boop editor for a "new and improved posting experience!"
Improved experience my ass...

Who uses that improved version? I use that old dashboard version of posts. I hate their improved user interface.

I'm giving a grim nod of understanding to the Wordpress developers. And then a dark look that they really need to get some auto-save working.
(and then I feel guilty about no auto-save on forum posts, and I also found an auto-save bug in the article editor last night, and now I just feel guilty... )
cheers

Forum posts aren't a real problem - though questions and answers would be nice to auto save as they can take quite some time to type - so I wouldn't feel too guilty.
Most of the time I nearly lose forum stuff is when I get "we tried three times ... too busy" - and mostly then you can still copy the typed text anyway.
You lot do a good job, and don't get enough praise for the effort you do put in.

My only problem with the CP article editor is that is saves too much! 
Sometimes I only click "Edit my article" to copy/paste some HTML, and all of a sudden it tells me I have a new draft. I'm never sure if I accidentally did a (back)space somewhere or if something got changed automatically or whatever. Anyway, easy to fix as I can just delete that draft.
When I type anything anywhere on CP and I try to navigate to another page or close the page it gives me a warning.
So I guess no troubles here on CP, and the only reason I'm complaining about WordPress is because you spoiled me to much

I always use NotePad++ to save a temp copy of the post I'm working on, in case I lose my mobile (and slightly unreliable) connection. Then, if I need to, I can always just copy and paste back to the post. As long as I step back as soon as I hit Ctrl+V, because my copied text to NP++ is now full of "pre" tags around code, which mysteriously get re-tagged, and escaped, if I don't change the "Paste as" dialogue.

Neither the Notepad++ I'm using do not auto-save the text file.

Notepad++ saves your files (at least it does for me). If I create a new document using Notepad++, then close Notepad++, then turn off my computer, then take a looong vacation, then turn on my computer again and open Notepad++ my newly created, unsaved document is still there

Yeah. NotePad++ is great like that, and it even still does basics like prompt on closing.

2005: people used to pressing Ctrl-Shift-S every five minutes (say, hello MDI)
2010: people getting used to pressing Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C every five minutes.

FTFY! 
I don't mind losing an hours work (well, I do, but you know what I mean) - that's why I have hourly incremental backups going on in the background, and autosave turned on in everything I can...
And it could be worse: I used to love AmiPro as a word processor, but it's autosave was buggy, and would often crash the app when autosaving and make sure you lost everything automatically...

That wasn't a bug, it's a feature! 
When coding I don't mind losing a bit of work. You'll just do it again except this time you know what to do and it might be prettier now that you know up front (although I once lost a good day of work, that was a bit much...). But writing for a blog (or anything else), that's just a drag!

Sorry for your loss.  Losing an hours work really sucks.
It reminded me of working in VS6 on Windows ME. (when I got my first laptop after school) The system was liable to crash at any time. After losing a few hours of work in the first month, I promptly bought Win2K and things were good...so good that I skipped XP altogether!

Gives you an opportunity to think over and write it again.
Something like the second edition of something; will always be better than what was lost.
As others say, use Notepad++

Well I just finished it and it came out okay I guess. If at first you don't succeed...
Just need to read it a final time and then I can publish
