  • There is functionally no benefit to using bash and there hasn’t been for over a decade. Even macOS transitioned to the default shell being zsh. In terms of user friendliness, fish outcompetes zsh and bash handily. The only other shell I’ve heard ‘beats’ fish is nushell. But I’ll never go back to zsh or bash. Needing to drop into bash to run a script can always be done if you need it, but your scripts will be easier to read in fish.



  • The thing is, I was a voracious reader since I was a kid. I started reading early and never stopped. My school had competitions to get kids to read and I always won by a landslide, so I honestly probably heard or read the term then, but couldn’t tell you when. Could have been five, could have been fifteen years old.

    About the only specific thing I remember about anything with a name when I was a kid was that the first book I ever failed to finish was Anna Karenina, when I tried to read it in fifth grade since it was worth the most points in the reading competition.

    Other than that, it’s amazing to me that people really remember anything specific about their childhood, because it’s all a blur and blank to me.
