I'm saddened by this event, as many of your projects have been awesome (even if I hadn't gotten any chance to test them).
I'm sorry to hear that. I hope that you may find your computer again, and if not, wish you luck on Project Crabcake (hey, that's MD's favorite food!), and potentially any efforts if you decide to restart a lost project in the future.

I can't (and won't) blame you for the loss - I hardly backup at all. Personally, it's kind of a hassle to backup from the calc. TI-Connect dies randomly, transfers slowly, and makes you want to pull out your hair. If you're luckier, you'll have TiLP, but it loves to crash a lot with transfers unless you are using the latest SVN version. (This, btw, applies for BASIC, AXE, and occasionally Mimas ASM projects.) This also could be very hard if parents don't like you and your calc.

I also find it sometimes time consuming to backup on a flash drive. First, you have to not lose the flash drive in the first place, then stick it in, copy files, and then *eject* and pull it out. (Don't just yank it out - if you are unfortunate like me, you'll learn to respect that rule with FS damage.) OK, that's not too hard, and only if you're lazy you'll think that way. Which pretty much encompasses the whole community.

We don't backup... at least not automatically. If someone asks us to, then most of the time we would. We assume that nothing bad will happen.... but obviously, that's a big fat lie. Hot_Dog's laptop got stolen, calc84's data lost. I think it's just another jarring reminder to backup, backup, backup!

For (most) program projects, I use Dropbox to backup. It may seem scary to install it first (if you are that kind of person), but once it's set up, simply copy your files in the special Dropbox folder, and it'll sync automatically! For more redundancy, set it up on multiple computers. They will sync with any computer's changes.

Oh no! You got to be kidding meh! 
I feel really sorry for your loss. (S.A.D. -> One of the reason that I joined Omnimaga for)
I wish you good luck on project Crabcake.

Wow, I feel for ya man. This really freakin blows. Did you have any sort fo replacment plan or insurance on your laptop? I can only hope that you did, or if not that you have some money put aside for a decent replacment. I'm also sad that correlation (which I was looking foward to playing with) and SAD which was a masterpiece in the makin had to be dropped. Those are still of course secondary to the stolen laptop. What an unfortunate incident. ):

It especially sucks that it had like 2 or 3 years in the works or something (since you joined UTI far before Omni and had it in the works already, although in BASIC). And Correlation is completely gone now

Oh, because in your previous posts it seemed to imply you lost everything including the beta code and stuff . This is why I was disappointed at the lack of backups actually. I guess I was wrong then.

Needless to say, my ASM lessons are helping people, so with heavy comments I hope that it can be continued.

I hope you do continue with the ASM lessons.  They are really helpful and easily understandable.

Sorry to hear about your laptop being stolen. Also sorry to hear you lost a lot of your work. You had some great projects in the works that's for sure.

Does this mean no Correlation testing anymore? 

Not for now.  However, I doubt Correlation will be discontinued altogether.
