So, I installed Linux Mint not too long ago, and while I've been able to do what I want to do without touching the Terminal, I am a bit curious how it works, and whether it could help me.
In particular, I am slowly getting into programming, and I've heard some people talk about strange, otherworldly things, like Vim, and Shell Scripts.
There was this PDF I downloaded called "The Linux Command Line" by William Shotts, but it is 570 pages long, and glancing through it, it seems to go into many different things, and I am afraid I'll end up learning a hundred things while only ever using ten of them, if you get my meaning.
So yeah, anyone who has some tips, or resources for a Linux newbie, please let me know.
I remember when the whole "Rust in Linux" thing was introduced to me via a YouTube thumbnail that said something about Torvalds explaining his thoughts on it.
Now I didn't watch the video, because I wasn't really as interested into Linux/programming as I am today, but I remember thinking to myself: "this is stupid, who cares what language is used as long as it does it's job?".
I am not a developer on the kernel tho, so maybe I'm just oversimplifying things. ๐คท
