https://anagora.org/adduser is probably one of the nodes in my digital garden I visit the most, along with the obvious complement (but less so nowadays?)

Node [[adduser]] in anagora.org

The Agora is a crowdsourced distributed knowledge graph: anagora.org.

Show threadFiXatoFeb 1, 2023
@hawkinsw what helps me remember the order, is that you can omit the last argument to have the symlink created in the current working dir. Which means that the last argument is the target, and the first the source.

@vidister If I'm doing stored procedures, I do noun + verb (simply because the IDE sorts alphabetically). I wish Microsoft SQL Server had the concept of "folders" and that it translated to an actual folder structure in SSMS.
