Bash and sql, because it's what really keeps things running, despite constant claims by hipster-hackers about how you should be using something else.
Real IDE usage (vim/emacs).

- bryanrasmussen 9y agobeing great at SQL, and a particular DB, will get you hired.
- icebraining 9y agoBash may keep things running, but how many developers need to know it? In my limited experience, maybe 10%, and even they barely use it. It's just for writing some bits of the infrastructure, which is then calcified for years.
- pandler 9y agoI'm always really impressed when I check out the source of a bash program that I use, and part of me wishes I could be at that level, but really I'm more likely to use python for any non-trivial cli scripting. It's more that sufficient for everything I've had to do so far, and python skills have much wider applications beyond just scripting.
