The Command Line (Cheat Sheet)

  • Command Line/Terminal Basics:

    • Prompts: indicate that terminal is ready to receive commands/input. May not appear if command is currently processing or under other conditions

    • Shells: (like Bash -- "Bourne-Again Shell") operating system elements that determine terminal appearance and behavior.

  • Command Examples (Review):

    • pwd: Print Working Directory. Outputs current directory that terminal is operating in.

    • ls : List. Outputs files in working directory. Options include -l (Long) or -a (All) for more or otherwise hidden information.

    • cd: Change Directory. "Moves" to other directories, eithrer via relative or absolute paths.

    • file: Checks file type of argument (important, as Linux does not use Windows-style extension suffixes)

    • mkdir: Make Directory. Creates a "folder" with the name/path given as argument. Options include: -p for creation of parent directories "on the way", -v to output created directory (no output by default)

    • rmdir: Remove Directory. (same options as mkdir)

    • touch: Modify file given as argument -- notably creates file if it does not exist.

    • man: Manual Pages. Displays information on a command entered as argument. (searchable with -k)

  • Paths:

    • Relative: Only refer to working directory for naming structure.

    • Absolute: Begin with /, denoting root directory.

    • Shortcuts & symbols:

      • ~: Home directory.

      • .: Working directory.

      • ..: Parent of working directory (can be repeated)

      • Tab key: Auto-completes based on recent commands, local files, or expected keywords.

  • Keep in mind...

    • Linux is extensionless (no file type suffixes)

    • Linux is case-sensitive

    • Spaces in names are valid, but must be single-quoted around full file name or escaped w/ \

Review: Growth Mindset

Basics of Growth Midset

  • Abilities are developed over time (preferably with conscious effort)

  • Growth is aided by a realistic sense of progress (rather than "good" vs "bad" skillset)

  • "Deliberate Practice" (As defined here)

    • Repeatable

    • Challenging

    • Clear measures of success/progress

Emotional Intelligence

  • Keep in mind:

    • Awareness of one's own emotional context can help to regulate stressful situations, and can help in better understanding and communicating with others.

    • (I have benefited from the crisis intervention training I've received, much of which is based in effectively empathizing)

Bias

  • Addressing bias effectively requires conscious reflection, not the simple absence of animosity.

  • (In assessments, I consistently rate well in valuing an understanding of bias and in addressing my own, but not as well in "courage" or "outspokenness")
