I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because it is off-topic on Stack Overflow, but should be posted on Software Engineering. — double-beep 54 secs ago

@folmerbrem yes, very much so. SO is for specific programming problems. General questions like yours would probably be better suited for the software engineering site at stack exchange. — Frauke Nonnenmacher 27 secs ago

Definitely off topic for this site. Possibly better suited for software engineering, you might ask there (or let the question be moved there). In any case, how other than in a file would you want to make any data persistent? You might consider encrypting the file, though. — Aconcagua 41 secs ago

what is it with the recent influx of ultra low quality questions? Is it September already?

@amon guess some folks have exams in June. Also some graduated students are trying to make career choices or cheat their way through interview questions. Stack Overflow also looks polluted more than usual, some of their users likely bump into various quality blocks and try their luck here instead. Business as usual

You may want to look at softwareengineering.stackexchange.com and/or security.stackexchange.com. This is hardly on-topic here and quite broad. — deceze ♦ 13 secs ago

softwareengineering.stackexchange.com might be a better place to ask this kind of question. — Augusto 14 secs ago

Adios to Unfriendly Badges: Ahoy, Lifejacket and Lifeboat
Jon Ericson on June 18, 2019

Analytical

Documentation badges

Tumbleweed and Reversal

Julia Silge’s analysis demonstrated that the Tumbleweed badge wasn’t serving its purpose.

Meg Risdal is our Product Manager who led us to make these changes.

Jane Willborn wrote the code.

Nick Craver made sure the Lifejacket and Lifeboat triggers don’t break the site.

Ben Voigt suggested the trigger we used first for Winter Bash hats and now for two new badges.

A bunch of people tested those triggers on our sites and prodded us to keep considering something like these new badges. We also got a bunch of feedback about Reversal and especially Tumbleweed that helped us understand how they worked in practice. We’ve got an amazing community here! …
