Sometimes, you just have to throw away a few days' work to obtain a simpler, better solution. It's so tempting to over-engineer. But when you look at the hard facts, complexity often hides weakness. I prefer clear failure and simple recovery over squishy engineering.
@DaveMichels_ @neil_neilzone True -- but -- you could 2FA against a public telephone box or something like that, if you wanted to. Or your work phone number, or family, or friend, etc, etc..
@jandreauwrites Hmm.. I do know what you mean. I’m shying away from that hackery. Philosophically one should login using a root account, rather than escalate privileges when logged in as a standard user. It’s just bad form. (But it annoys me too. I’ll think about it.)
@AskVirginMoney Abusive display of fat & greedy banks using this difficult time to squeeze the humble man. Me call you? Please. The ONLY reason I have a credit card is for desperate times like these. I await for written apology and reinstatement - not just for me but for all @BBCNews

Handy tip: Want to copy an existing web dev folder but want to exclude some folders? Use rsync!
rsync -av --exclude 'node_modules' --exclude ‘.git’ src_dir/ target_dir/
