Oops.

Since you're using sudo, I suggest setting different passwords on production, remote, and personal systems. That way, you'll get a password error before a tired/distracted command executes in the wrong terminal.

i have different passwords but i type them so naturally it didnt even register.

"wrong password."

"oh, i'm on the server, here's the right password:"

"no wait"
