    Hello 👋🏼 

I made the mistake of coding a tad bit too late into the evening and issued the command: `clang main.c -o main.c` and found the hard way that clang does in fact let you issue that command. I know that this problem could be avoided with version management software and good coding practice, but I do think it might be a good thing to not allow (or at least prompt/have a flag to add a prompt) before over writing a given file. I tested this with gcc and found that it will not allow you to run `gcc main.c -o main.c`. (Also thankfully this occurred on a non essential project and I lost nothing of value...)
