Why is that not ASA? Or even ASSA.
Because they knew exactly what they were doing, obviously.
Because ASS.
Because substation alpha is SSA so they just reversed it.
Because it's funny.
When I took a geometry test in eighth grade, I got a point deducted because I wrote ASS instead of SSA (side-side-angle) when calculating angles and side lengths of a triangle. Still got the right answer though
Oh, wonderful, teachers who punish kids for being kids and/or making mistakes.

Right in the nostalgia! Happiness is a warm genlock...
I’m so old and tired, this isn’t even funny anymore. I’ll have to explain to some junior engineer about ASS. Then management will learn about this term “ass”, and use it incorrectly at every possible opportunity. Then when no one can explain ASS, I end up being “the ass guy.”

A more complex but more commonly used program is rsync
rsync -rav /home/user/Documents /mnt/usbdrive is treated differently than rsync -rav /home/user/Documents/ /mnt/usbdrive which is different than rsync -rav /home/user/Documents /mnt/usbdrive/ which is different than rsync -rav /home/user/Documents/ /mnt/usbdrive/
It's a great tool for making copies onto drives, even servers. But man you have to double check how each folder path is laid out, otherwise it'll write the files of one folder to the main drive, unorganized.

If they know Regex, assume you are in Sarumans tower and held captive until a hawk comes in.
