Jay I appreciate this video series. I'm currently a new linux admin, and haven't had to do much bash scripting. While I'm comfortable in the terminal, my main focus has been with ansible. I knew this was one of my weak points. This is exactly what I needed!

Hi there! Just a query, I am not in IT so I don't know anything about programming and data structure etc. But I love using Linux and Ricing Window Mangers and I have seen people do awesome ricing with scripts so I want to learn Bash. Can I learn Bash without any Basics in IT and Computer Science ?

[@folkink4349]

Is the course valid for using git bash?

[@hootiebubbabuddhabelly]

Okay - I'm going to try this again because there's a particular script I want written. Last time I played with bash scripting I trashed and crashed my bash. No terminal, no updates, no installs, no upgrades, no terminal and, did I mention, no terminal? No shell? It was fascinating, actually. As everyone seemed to say the same thing which as to snag the bash of your live flash drive but I'd long since overwritten that and, of course, couldn't make a new one because - no bash. I got it switched to sh but it only worked once and that was a test that had nothing to do with what I was trying to do which was reinstall bash. Which you can't do without bash, ROFL!! BUT, I'm going to make my extra super simple knock, knock "chat bash" script if it kills me!! ROFL!! Of course, it might take a few tries because I haven't so much as an inkling of how I crashed it so, in all likelihood, I'll probably crash it again. But I DO know how to fix it if I crash it, so I"m good to go!! Let's get this show on the ROAD!! YEEEEEHAW!!
