Anecdata is anecdata and I’ll counter yours with mine: I almost never have to google bash syntax (I do for things like arrays which I don’t use often). So no, there are no “natural causes”.
Face it folks, it’s not bash’s fault if you use it seldom enough that you need a reminder of the syntax when you do. Nothing wrong with that!
- bigDinosaur 4y agoArrays are pretty basic. I won't have to Google how to create an array in Python for the rest of my life - I've done it in Bash and I've forgotten every single time. I think I had it memorised permanently for Python within about five minutes. I think when I find myself using arrays in Bash (or Powershell) it's usually time to take a step back and reevaluate.
- imtringued 4y agoI use bash frequently and I can't remember the syntax. I think your comment convinced me to never use bash again. Now onto finding a replacement... If people say they use bash because it is preinstalled they can go screw themselves. Install whatever replacement I'm going to pick and shut up.
