No, that's plain wrong (I am from Czech Republic). You can even get an "engineering degree" (Ing.) by studying economics.

I am glad I am not the only one. Why do I see it like 50 times a day?

Perhaps because Instagram uses their own Python and a heavily custom Django fork?

I like to use Pico CSS as a starting point for websites (as opposed to apps). I even put it in the my Django starter kit (https://github.com/stribny/sidewinder/). Recommended!

I don't want to just add to it because the entire idea is to have a short book, but I will be thinking about replacing/improving some sections. The examples already demonstrate the practical scenarios, but I think there could be a few sentences about how a particular concept can be used in real world scenario.

Thanks for sharing:)

Thanks for the tip. I will explore it.

Thanks for the input. I have made several updates to the book in the past and this would be lost in print, but as the book matures and I incorporate feedback it can be interesting to try offering a print version. Perhaps print-on-demand type of thing.

Yes, the linked sample pages are just randomly taken pages from the book PDF, as I put it together quickly for the Show HN. Apologies. I will make a better example when I rework the landing page.

DevOps is not very specific term... so hard to list specific things to learn. But it certainly will be much, much more than just shell/command line knowledge.

I definitely recommend to try things as you go along, copy paste things and run them yourself. As for the timeline, everyone is different. My own take is that learning always takes time and repetition, so I would not rush it and focus on practice.

Nice! At least you get your feedback in real time, see what people struggle with and so on. That can be very useful.

Thank you!

Yes, as other people pointed out too, the landing page could do with some mobile and copy improvements.

Thanks for the feedback.

I agree and I try to keep it as nice as I can, but it can be hard to do when the book is being updated and the content changes.

Nevertheless I will be mindful of it for the next update.

I would not say it is trash, but I tend to agree with the general sentiment and personally don't write longer scripts.

> This is also the advice given in the google shell guide.

This advice is also given in this handbook :) But in reality you might come to a work repo that already has such scripts and it is good to understand it a little bit, I would think.
