Mastering the command line is all about those little productivity hacks! 🚀

Today's tip: Ever need to run multiple commands *only if* the previous one succeeded? Use `&&`.

Example: `sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y`

This ensures your system only tries to upgrade after a successful update. Super handy for scripting or just chaining quick tasks.

Today I Learned that:
1. Debian's sqlite3 command is deliberately built with readline support turned off
2. You can work around this by using a utility called "rlwrap" - instead of doing "sqlite3 dbname" you do "rlwrap sqlite3 dbname"! And it Just Works!

So now I can go back down in my command history of my sqlite3 interactive session instead of scratching my head as to why the arrow keys don't work any more. (I didn't realise that it was my switch from Ubuntu to Debian which was the cause.)

Command line stuff like `whoami` in e.g. `squeue -u $(whoami)` or the etymology of the command `less`, are like cave paintings or rude graffiti in Pompeii. Programmers from the past succinctly using humour to convey a purpose.
