There are some clever tips here how to remember. Ages ago I struggled too so for half a day I just kept repeating the words "ln target linkname" in my head. Anyone else?

I feel like a lot of this stuff is rote memorization that we shouldn't be so eager to demonize. The medical profession has you memorizing effectively random shit for years and that's fine. But in our industry, we think we should just magically remember stuff we enter once in a blue moon, and if not, who cares, just Google for it. It bothers me. And it's something I've increasingly turned to flash cards for. I'm tired of googling that command I used once 3 months ago but would be insanely useful right now.
