When I was finishing of my degree at Uni I actually spent a couple of months as an auxiliary teacher giving professional training in Unix, which included teaching people shell script.

Nowadays (granted, almost 3 decades later), I remember almost nothing of shell scripting, even though I've stayed on the Technical Career Track doing mostly Programming since.

So that joke is very much me irl.

Me with powershell. I'll write a pretty complex script, not write powershell for 3 months, come back and have to completely relearn it.

Bash substitution is regex-level wizardry.

Slapping a $ before an environment variable name is "wizardry?"
