For those who don't know, you can make git pish have the same effect as git push by creating an alias between pish and push. Useful to do for any misspellings you make more than once. $ git config --global alias.pish push
Cannot for the life of me tell if this is a serious suggestion.
It is-- what is the perceived downside?

#34I often set `alias fucking='sudo'`. >$ make me a sandwich permission denied >$ fucking make me a sandwich [or] >$ fucking !!
I have the same.
# Because sometimes you gotta be harsh.
alias fucking="sudo"
# And sometimes you gotta be nice.
alias please="sudo"Re: The Fuck – An app which corrects your previous console command
#35Another step towards the Anti-Mac user interface. https://www.nngroup.com/articles/anti-mac-interface/
What would be the Mac design principle way of doing this then? Would every command line tool then be an Anti-Mac user interface?

You have a giant list of common typos, making you a worse and worse typer as years go on, until you are mashing your head on the keyboard to type anything.

#37+1 for not being PC
Actually, it does appear to work on PCs.

#38[~user/]$ rm -rf / rm: it is dangerous to operate recursively on `/' rm: use --no-preserve-root to override this failsafe [~user/]$ fuck sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root / fuck!
Rule for this behavior disabled by default, but you can enable it. Also you can disable confirmation or use `fuck -y` for more fun.
I like how you named and styled the command after how many terminal users actually approach these situations.
1. Hurriedly type something to solve a pressing problem. It doesn't work but tells you enough the fix should be obvious to a machine.
2. Mutter or shout "Fuck!" in head depending on how obvious problem was, how often it repeats, or just how long it takes to redo it.
3. Perform the correct action.
Your model is like the Underwear Gnomes model for problem-solving applied to terminals. They always missing step 2. Except, on step 2, you just "fuck" to get profit... err, you get to finish at Step 2 with one word. Finish faster with this technique to move on to next job in workflow.

#39Every day: $ git pish $ fuck
Git even has a wonderful autocorrect feature that you can enable with
"git config --global help.autocorrect 1"
This fixes commands like git pish or git ermote

I've actually done this for a couple commands I screw up often enough -- I have this in my bashrc:
alias dumbtypo="echo 'LEARN TO TYPE, MORON'"
alias sl="dumbtypo; ls"
alias rbuy="dumbtypo; ruby"
alias pytohn="dumbtypo; python"
alias brwe="dumbtypo; brew"
alias arhcey="dumbtypo; archey"
