😆 Oh, goody! Another "structured course" distilled from someone's personal scribbles on a book that's less about hacking and more about reminding you that #Linux exists. Surely, #GitHub will revolutionize the world with this #groundbreaking revelation about...basic terminal commands. 🙄✨

Ah yes, because nothing screams "power user" like relying on a comma and question mark to remember terminal commands 🤦‍♂️. The pinnacle of technical achievement: typing "question" to summon the almighty AI oracle, because typing "man" was just too mainstream. Bravo! 🎉

A Comma and a Question Mark Redux

Two shell commands — a comma and a q — that give my terminal a little extra help.

🔥 Ah, the sweet irony of needing a PhD in terminal commands just to activate your "AI copilot" in Autodesk Fusion 360. Who knew installing an extension could be more complex than designing the International Space Station? 🚀 Apparently, the future of CAD is spending 10 seconds in terminal—because who doesn't love a good command line dance? 💃🕺

Ah, the eternal quest to banish those pesky, brain-melting icons from macOS Tahoe's menu 🖥️—because who needs visual cues when you can bask in the minimalist glory of pure text? 🤓 Just run an obscure Terminal command and voilà, you too can bring back the charm of 1980s computing—next up, ASCII art email! 🚀

Hide macOS Tahoe's Menu Icons With This One Simple Trick - 512 Pixels

I really dislike Apple’s choice to clutter macOS Tahoe’s menus with icons. It makes menus hard to scan, and a bunch of the icons Apple has chosen make no sense and are inconsistent between system applications. Steve Troughton-Smith is my hero for finding a Terminal command to disable them: Here’s one for the icons-in-menus haters […]

Why does AI tell you to use Terminal so much?

Why does AI tell you to use Terminal so much?

When humans explain how to tackle a Mac problem, they usually prefer to use GUI apps when appropriate. AI much prefers you to enter commands into Terminal. This has consequences.

👴💻 "Old eyes" Tyler crafts a cutting-edge innovation: a border around your active window! Finally, a solution for those who find the #macOS design as distinguishable as a chameleon at a rainbow party. 🚀🙄 Customizable borders? Revolutionary! Or, you know, Terminal commands for that signature "What does this even do?" user experience. 😂

Ah, yes, the "directed graph shell" for those who want to turn every terminal command into a PhD thesis. 📚 Apparently, piping isn’t complex enough, so let’s throw in some nuclear magnetic resonance and 2D Fourier transforms for good measure. 🤯 Because who doesn’t want to perform quantum physics during a directory listing?

Ah, yes, the riveting tales of Linux's "humble" origins—because nothing screams excitement like reminiscing about college days with Linus while terminal commands were the height of fashion 🙄. Who knew that attending the University of Helsinki in 1988 was the ultimate prerequisite for worldwide tech fame? 🚀💾
