how URLs work

This is page 5 of my zine HTTP: Learn your browser's language! Next week, we'll talk about HTTP requests! Permalink to this comic: https://wizardzines.com/comics/how-urls-work/ Get the zine: HTTP: Learn your browser's language! Get all my zines: All the zines!! want more comics? read free comics, buy print and pdf zines (we now have MUCH cheaper letter mail shipping options if you're only buying one zine!), and find us on twitter or mastodon.

From today's mail of Julia Evans' Saturday Comics mailing list. It's really a delight, and if you find this format informative and useful you should definitely sign up.

Bite Size Bash by b0rk is awesome!

@b0rk is at it again with another fanastic zine. This one's about a topic that's unusually near and dear to me so I absolutely couldn't resist snapping it up.

Bite Size Bash is everything you should expect from a Julia Evans zine: comprehensive, insightful, and fun. While I have a few quibbles with the content (I'm sorry but set -e is the devil's own work, and please don't read a file or anything else line by line with a for loop) but these little quibbles are far outweighed by the mountain of other good and cogent content in the zine.

I especially love her descriptions of what bash is particularly good at: Gluing processes together, concurrency management, and execution tracing, for a small sample.

If you've been ignoring my advice about diving into Greg's Bash Guide (or even if you haven't been) I would whole-heartedly recommend grabbing yourself a copy of Bite Size Bash and getting familiar with one of the most pragmatic tools available to anyone developing software (or operating in any other way) a *nix system.

i know i advocated for shiigami eyes, the transpride/transphobic markers for websites and blog users, but idk i think some terfs  are incorrectly marking things or  wither people aren’t understaning that gren=trans pride and red = tranphobic/
