I don’t do much with bash since I primarily do windows admin, but I run into the same issue with powershell.
I have a document in VSCode that I store frequently used commands and any kind of notation/documentation I need to take advantage of it in the future. It’s a lot of one or two liners for stuff I know I’m going to forget, like the once a month hyperv cluster update command 😂.
Similarly I’ve added functions to the powershell local and global profiles on my computer/group policy. (contextually similar to bashrc, bash_profile, that load when launching interactive or non interactive shells, as well as user context) That way i can easily execute repeptive commands without having to think!
Basically, I think we all have the same problem and we’ve forgotten more than we know lol
Most phoronix articles are pretty much straight to the point actually. I haven’t regularly visited them in a while but they were a good source for open source news, and might still be.
