ASMR: shell commands to fall asleep to

Underrated, it's just amazing how serene and concise this video is

At college, I was forced to learn about shell scripting, but after using Linux for more than half a year, I am enjoying every bit of it. I am still learning about shell scripting.

first time I see someone make working with CLI look aesthetic and easy. Beautiful video

Worth mentioning Ctrl-R as well for hotkeys. That fzf man alias is really cool

probably the best video on overview of shell commands that ive seen so far

Goes from newbie to advanced real quick! I use the terminal a lot as a software engineer, but this taught me a couple things and I feel like I understand some things better.

Well that escalated quickly.

One of the finest videos ever made for the shell enthusiast, kudos to u man, eagarly awaiting for more !!!!!

I just become death destroyer of the terminal world!!

Low sub channel + quality content like this = instant subscribe

I never thought the shell could be relaxing but you have done it. Good work.

Perfect content, helpful and calm, thanks. Seeing how someone uses tools is so helpful as I learn to use them.

Great fzf examples, thank you so much!

Awesome and comprehensive video showing off the true capabilities of a good shell user. I realize literally everything people see, is a text doc

Glad this showed up in my feed. Perfect for my needs at work. Thank you for the video.

Nice, really liked the concise explanations for the basic commands

Have been looking for this exact type of vid now for sometime now. Thank you it was done very well. The final wrap up at the end was perfect.

Thank you so much for bringing fzf to my attention! Just the type of tool I've always wanted but never knew existed.

Most useful $SHELL video EVER! I learned so much.

The xargs command section was really good! Something as simple as aliasing 'logs' to open a fzf with all your docker containers and choose one to check the logs for is just so useful

Explained more and better in 12 minutes than our teachers in a whole semester.

really useful video. I am using bash for a few years now, and only recently i am starting to realize how powerful the pipe command is

This is such a high quality video! It starts off great with some introductory concepts, but then accelerates at a great pace and shows how to put things together. Really was great for someone like myself who is comfortable in the shell but looking to level up. C-x C-e was literally a paradigm shift for me, and has changed how I interact with the terminal. Thanks for the awesome video, looking forward to more great content!

The fzf based commands are incredible. I use fzf every day but never thought of that. Gonna start making some alias tomorrow! Thanks!

FZF is the tool I didn't know I needed.

Great video! I already know quite a bit about the CLI, but the fzf tool is super cool!! Will definitely use thanks a ton!

Voice + command techniques + explanations are superb.❤

The Ctrl-X Ctrl-E to edit command in $EDITOR is actually very very useful! Thanks for telling us that!

excellent content and delivery. this was incredibly executed. Subbed

I like the calming background music. Kept me from uncontrollably breaking down and taking pepto again

Damn, I thought the video might be too basic for me but I have never seen fzf being used like that. Love it.

Wow, I thought I knew stuff in the terminal until watching this video xD. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us, I'll make sure to implement this tips in my workflow

Awesome video. Loved it. One of my favourite is 'seq'. Prints out a sequence of numbers. Handy and fast. Also one dirty trick to go to your home directory is only typing 'cd' and hitting enter. No need add ~.

Thanks for the useful info! It was awesome seeing the count of monte cristo being used for some examples, its my favourite book.

I've been messing around with shell for almost 4 years now, I really love the power and flexibility of it, it's really powerful

Great video PLUS.The music is very relaxing.

After watching this, it feels like you can do anything with the shell. Then you find yourself needing something like "pipe into a text file, but prepend instead of append", and it turns out you need to use four commands, invoke a function, write a formal proposal, and make a pilgrimage to Dennis Ritchie's final resting place on a moonless night and chant incantations from dusk to dawn to do it.

This is great, I’ve been using unix shell scripting a while but not wholeheartedly so haven’t really learnt it properly because i have extensive knowledge of powershell, even to the extent that install powershell on Mac and use it. But I realise that all the funky and fancy stuff in ps, I can do in way less code and probably more so just using the unix approach. Fzf is just fantastic and so is this video, you have given me inspiration to go head first into unix shell scripting so thanks 💪

Thanks for posting this!

thank you so much! I've drastically changed my config.fish because of this video

Great information and nice background noice. Helps you concentrate. Thanks for this. I hope you do many more videos on Linux!

Great format, pleasing voice

I was trying to find a vid like this for a while now haha. Thank u 😁

this is absolutely a gem :) thank you for the video and learning us nice stuff, you just got a new subscriber

So useful. Awesome video thank you

Holy crap. I learned some cool new tricks. Thank you. I was really skeptical at first.

Man this video is relaxing

You...., wizard...., has a new worshipper. Me is, from now on, following your magic.

Pretty concise, subscribed!

Great video, hope you make more!

My line editing became a lot less painful once I figured out I could use the emacs bindings on it. Also, I didn’t know about c-x,c-e which in retrospect makes a lot of sense. Thanks for teaching me something

A reallly good video, thanks man. :)

This one is the best! To the point and powerfull. Thanks so much!

Your channel is beautiful Bro. It’s just beautiful.

Nice video. I've been using Linux for 30 years and learned some new commands, such as fzf. One thing I would add is the tac command. It's cat but in reverse, which is sometimes handy

Amazing video. You are the king

wow bro keep it well made and just great overall!

Been working in cli server for 2, years and I knew every command. I'd like to add 'history | grep "whatever"' for when you'd reuse some complex commands.

I just know bro is gonna get a hit with the algo at some point and up in niche tech recommends

Impressed that you introduced me to a couple of commands I was not aware of and I pride myself in writing one liners that wrap 3 lines. Specifically `compgen` and `fd`. The latter of course written by the same fellow who's created `bat` which is wonderful replacement for `cat`. Another interesting way to use `xargs` is by inserting the output in a specific location in a command. e.g. $ aws ecs list-clusters | rg blah | cut -d / -f 2 | tr -d '",' | xargs -n1 -I{} aws ecs describe-services --services {} --cluster {} One I use fairly often while writing a long command where I need to switch to looking something else up is prepending the command with a `#` and hitting return, it parks the command as a comment which you can go back to editing but doesn't execute anything when initially entered. Try this in a chromium based browser with a ton of tabs open... `cmd + shift + a`... start typing the title of what you are looking for ;)

I know I've used tail before when I needed to iter over a very large dir with an unknown amount of empty folders which would break another workflow. Amazing how fast it ran, just recursing through each level and nuking every empty dir it came across

Great video ! Btw in your node_module cleanup command you could put 2 inside the bracket of your cat command to get only the second part of the entry and not trying to cat the size of the folder like such: fd 'node_modules' -HIt d | xargs du -sh | sort -hr | fzf -m --header "Select which ones to delete" --preview 'cat $(dirname {2})/package.json' | awk '{print $2}' | xargs -r rm -rf

That fzf is amazing.

Great video! Thanks!

you opened my eyes. ty~

This is some good stuff here...

HOLY HELL THIS VIDEO IS AMAZING

Very useful video 🎉 For some reason I didn't know about `Ctrl+X` + `Ctrl+E` to edit a multi-line cmd -- that is so cool and definitely needed :D

Glad this came up on my feed. Shoutout algorithm

Never knew about the -f option for tail. Got a feeling I'll be using that quite a bit now!

Great video!

This is a very good video. good work.

Thanks! and love the profile pic

This video is great!

Loved it🔥

Great content

if you think awk is confusing, you just haven't taken the time to learn it. It is an incredibly simple language that looks a lot like javascript. Literally just like like 15 minutes to read the documentation for gawk (in a browser, its just easier) and you will never be confused again

Wow that was great tutorial👌

fzf is really cool, gonna use it way more often from now on The only thing that I wish you'd also mention is how you can manipulate history too. Let's say you've done cat on some file with long path, and now you want to copy it. Instead of cp . you can do cp !!:1 . which will use first argument from latest command in history as argument. Also, cd (just cd, with no arguments) will send you to home directory and cd - will send you to previous directory.

The dash can sometimes be used to use the previous value/location. "cd -" lets you go back to where you were. Nice if you cd into some root folder and want to go to where you were. Same goes for "git checkout -"; if you are in your branch, checkout to master to git pull, but want to return to the branch you were just in.

Have been using linux for a few things for like 5 years, and just only now realized man stands for manual

Fantastic presentation & info, subd!

I’m going to do my best to regularly forget to use fzf but also that last command with the open the editor was gold! But now I need to find the conf file to select the correct editor.

loved this video

When you started the video, it seemed like I am watching some noob tutorial, but in the last I became noob, 😂 you earned a subscriber, the knowledge you shared here is awesome, I will surely watch your bash scripting videos and other interesting linux related videos

Bat instead of less works amazing too (great colour output)

I don't usually comment but this deserves it! Amazing video 🙌

Loved the video and the fman alias.

thank you what a great video

"more is less than less" absolute beauty

I remember my first bad rm -rf. I had a path not in quotes _with a space in it._ I ended up deleting waaaaay more than i wanted to. I've also had to use curl piped to gz to something else to get text output from a post request. Very neat. Damn boi, you got some _pipes_ on you 🥁

I love the shell

Wow, what a great video.

Good stuff.
