HELP Cred Forums HOW DO I USE LINUX!!
Alexander Ward
use codecademy's command line tutorial
put a linux cheat sheet on your pc and just use it, no one will think otherwise. I suggest gettin familiar with the man command which is the manual
you can call this command on any other command in the shell and it will ggive you a short description and flags you can pass to them
Cameron Rogers
lol you fucked if you can't run some basic command lines.

What's it like working in hell? Is it warm there?

Nice fakeposting user.
Hunter Russell
>Fortune 500 >Linux Nice meme. Linux is only used by basement dwelling NEETs.
Kevin Morgan
>Fortune 500 company >Not giving you a laptop that has already been hardened and setup with the relevant software needed to work.
Yeah right
Luis Davis
same fag
I work at a fortune 500 with ten developers and we all run linux or unix.
Owen Butler
I said he was fakeposting not because a fortune500 would use Linux, but that they would hire him without his knowledge of something so apparently pivotal to the role AND without the resources to facilitate him at his job.
Owen Martinez
>fortune 500 >10 developers Sounds like an awful place to work.
Chase Morales
Why would they threaten to fire you for fucking up themselves by not giving you the right shit to work with ? Thats what I dont get
Jordan Robinson
It's actually really nice. Much nicer than working at some shop with a hundred devs working in cubicles for 10 hours a day getting paid 35k/year to code .NET apps in visual studio.
Not every fortune500 company is like this, in fact the vast majority aren't and have a very small team of developers.
I work in a converted warehouse in Manhattan.
It's a dream job.

>full complete desktop linux distro running natively with dual nt/linux kernels >isn't complete enough to build big projects
ok kid

That's not even what bash on windows is. It's more like WINE.
What do you think happens when Linux generates file paths longer than Windows is capable of handling?
All sorts of shit that doesn't even throw errors but ends up causing issues down the line when you want to test software.
Jose Lewis
they are going to have to add a shit done of improvements before that preview things comes even close to bash

Caleb Murphy
Currently going for programming right now and that first scenario sounds like hell on earth, how did you avoid it user?
Daniel Watson
Shit meant
Grayson Gray
If they get cheap labour or employee they try to use it and jobs might not require a guy who is great with programming

>fortune 500 is that some poo in loo company?
Asher Long
I was using Ubuntu full time when I was 12. You're a fucking idiot and you don't deserve a job at all.
Things like this just reinforce the notion I'm better than everyone else. My narcissism is your fault. Fuck you; you're developing my personality disorder.
Ayden Wood
I was playing with my pecker when I was 12 stay mad virgin
Parker Gray
and a fortune 500 company wants you to do their work on your own personal laptop? The fuck company doesn't issue out equipment or wants people copying company shit to their personal computers.
