Thanos-CLI – a Python tool that deletes half your files

Hi HN, I built a small command-line tool inspired by Thanos’s snap. It selects randomly exactly half the files in a directory and (optionally) deletes them. Repo: https://github.com/soldatov-ss/thanos PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/thanos-cli/ It’s intentionally simple — feedback is welcome.
