this is one of, if not THE best video on the fundamentals of unix shell and processes. very happy i found it i'm learning so much even after 10 years of being a developer
@Backroad_Junkie
I'm still running shell scripts I wrote 30+ years ago. Originally under System V, then Solaris, then Ubuntu, now BASH on windows, lol. (If you go to my site and run one of the slideshows, that slideshow was generated by a script...) They generate HTML code. Originally they generated linked lists for a slideshow. Now they generate the code for HTML/Java arrays to create slideshows. Modified yes, but some of the code is from the original incarnation, lol. (Mostly the basic I/O, file read and write stuff.) I'd rewrite all of it in a modern language, but hey, the scripts still work, and I see no need to move on... 😁 (I've been a Unix SysAdmin/Systems Programmer since the early '80's. By the end of my career, I babysat NAS arrays and mail machines...) 😁

TLDR: I am glad I found this channel because it will help me answer questions I have about life. Even if it leads to a dead end I will be happy that I was able to use my brain again to learn and find something. I was in a slumber of doubt in myself and was just content with the regular loop I put myself in. Then the pandemic happened and disrupted that loop. It has been years since I sat down and drew anything. When I did so it took about 3-4 hours but I noticed even though I didn't practice my art skills went up considerably. It was because over time I started to look at the world differently. When I was taking math, physics and computer science, I just looked at it like a process I needed to do to get a piece of paper. Every time I would try and make time to wander off and see what I could do, I was rewarded with an F. So I kept myself constrained to what was to be taught in class. I could see that drawing art, math, physics, computer science, etc. was all the same. They were interconnected. I wanted to explore why when I drew something new with my hand, it felt the same as when I solved equations in physics and math. I also realized when I drew concept art, it felt exactly the same way when I created software solutions. However after I joined my regular cycle, I tossed those questions aside because I had job security and did not have to do any more thinking. Just follow a process and have no creativity. I realized however I wasn't happy. Yeah I got money and paid the bills, yeah I had excess money but that person who was inquisitive was still in there. I did NOT have time to think and wander off into thoughts that light up my mind. So now I am going to dust off the old math, physics and computer science books and start reading them. I want to answer my question why is my art skills connected to my mathematics skills. I came to a realization that all that we do in this life is find, record, combine, (we haven't done this yet I dont think...) modify, and delete patterns of the universe. In basic art we can use to record patterns of the universe. (portrait painting) Through concept art we can use those patterns and combine those patterns to express something else. (video games, movies, etc) in physics we can use it to record the patterns of the universe. Through computer science/engineering we can use those patterns and combine those to express something else. I had to come back to edit this because modification of a universal pattern would and could mean the alteration of the universe itself. So I added combining patterns. That way just like a wave they are just multiple patterns added or removed to make a different one. I know this sounds like some crazy mans ramblings but finding out how this all comes together is what I want to do in my life. I saw this guy a long time ago on YT called FZD school. His art videos opened my eyes. It looked like magic at first but then I saw a method. How he solved the problems over time and it made me realize that its all the same. We as humans rip them apart and put them in their own chunks to eat easier. The truth is we should have been eating it together. I think the answer lies somewhere in data science and data visualization. While people will use it for the stocks and business I'll be using it to answer my questions. Even if it leads to a dead end, having me turn the wheels in my head and search for an answer will make me happy. We go to college to record patterns. Some people are special and can do both at the same time. Those are the geniuses. I've seen those people walking around on campus back in the day. Me I do things one step at a time so I am not a genius lol. I am just a person who is willing to give up something god to find something meaningful.
@mxaraujo
The content is very well organized. This course is sensational.
@shambhvisharma5618
I am a great procastinator but i completed this course in three days time....and i finally did it :D and I am proud...need some appreciation guys :D
@arushi_gupta_15
This is the first course I've done on youtube that I ACTUALLY completed. Loved the organization of the content and the explanation was chef's kiss. I hope this is gonna be useful for my scripting interview tomorrow :')
@beauforda.stenberg1280
I think this YouTube video was well-structured and well-presented, but it was really stock-standard in the genre. What set it apart for me, was the use of flowchart notation to visually convey aspects of an interactive command, showing child-processes, spawned sub-shell, etc., for example. These were a mark of pedagogical excellence and I appreciated them greatly.
@badrequest2832
Great video!!! Literally chose to watch this 20 mins per day until completion and retained it all. Great tutorial for beginners or refreshing minds and well structured. Thanks for the video!
@HansFlamme
This channel man, absolute gold.
@krawl97ing
The most underrated YouTube channel! Keep up the good work :)
@vladimirpopovic9689
Based on the user login, I can see that this video was made for me.
@GabrielMartinez-ez9ue
What a great course. Had to pause it and walk around the house quite a few times but I made it! Thanks
@poincareelcartografo5406
25:08 Don't need to write lengths. It only works because the file already exits
@uitlegklas
Top down aproach in the first 5 minutes is great! What the are we talking about? Superb idea!
@SalDevX
What a great job man!! Thanks a lot!!
@C-1-FRY
Bravo Sir!! Incredible material. Its been a while since I've worked with UNIX, and this was just perfect. Thank you
@Maen963
great course !! thank you u saved me, i have an interview tomorrow wish me luck
@kanuni7399
@25:37 , if we are using pipes, why do we pass lengths to the sort command. Shouldn’t the pipe pass the output of the 'wc' command to the 'sort' command?
@burakkara337
I think at 25:13 command should be "$ wc -l *.pdb | sort | head -1" . We dont have to write sort lenghts again.
