Probably because they’re dead simple.
It’s not even about preference but about versatility and adaptability.
You don’t have to be prefer to use them, but being able to deal with the unexpected and figure out the unfamiliar is generally a sign of intelligence.
This has been the case for as long as i can remember (since the early 2000s)
If it helps, there is evidence that you don’t actually need to reference them. Just writing them down helps the memory process.

I understand it. Who wants to use two passwords to access their computer?
Light brown aka tan.
Yeah but we need that good old-fashioned vigilance against Russian propaganda … now the same folks swallow it hook, line, and sinker.
they think that people still live in the cold war era
Their target audience is boomers. Now if only they still had the Russophobia that they did back then…
Contractville is janky as hell and not anywhere near the scale of GTA. But it is damn fun.
The logic is that the most useful app will be the most popular by virtue of its utility.
Not always true but I’m sure there’s some correlation.
Keeper, myself. Work gives me a free/subsidized family plan so sure I’ll take it.
Definitely better than Lastpass.
Tenacity is the only one that is still actively being maintained.
I’m glad they stuck with it!
The video is great, and I’m excited for the new Audacity. But that logo/icon is an abomination.
Car crash in front of my house. Someone pulled out without seeing a car coming and got T-boned.
I wonder if Patty made it.
It seems only natural…
Anecdotal example: just yesterday I found out that I broke my file picker function in five out of six web browsers, by loading an Xcompose file with some definitions that GTK apparently doesn’t like. It took me about 5 hours of poking at things to figure out that a change I did a week ago, broke a function I hardly ever use. So I did fix it eventually but I it took me a week to notice and then hours to track down what was going on.
Is there any chance at all that the casual users would be using a compose key, let alone loading a custom definition file for it? Hell no!
But here’s the secret: there is nobody out there who is the perfect expert who never makes a mistake and knows all things. We’re all out here pushing boundaries; the only difference is where those boundaries are.
This applies outside of IT just as much, maybe more. It’s the rare person who will admit it though.
Isn’t nfs pretty much completely insecure unless you turn on nfs4 with Kerberos? The fact that that is such a pain in the ass is what keeps me from it. It is fine for read-only though.
It’s clearly intended to be “git tea” given its little cute signin page, “git with a cup of tea”.
But yeah my boss calls it like “git taya” and I feel like an idiot trying to say “gitty”[-up!]
Bro’s not saying you have to memorize the manual, just like … read it. Even a bit of familiarity goes a long way.
If you have literally no memory then command line is 100% unusable but otherwise every little bit helps.
It’s [edit: inspired by although that explanation feels pretty lame to me] Esperanto. The correct spelling should be “Forĝejo”.
Pronunciation is like the English word “forge”. J is pronounced like English “Y”, so “ejo” is a-yo.
IPA: fɔɹd͡ʒejo.
Because reissues of old games are overpriced.
The example given is Super Mario Galaxy 1+2 for $100
I found some articles which quoted release pricing at $70 and questioning that being a reasonable price, so $100 may be beyond the pale.
Edit: CA vs US explains the displayed price difference.
