I'm a relative newbie in the field, but I really love using terminal (I do all my C work for grad school in ViM), it's really essential at work, there's no faster way to do batch file processing a lot of times (especially with ffmpeg, awesome).
I'm surprised people don't like terminal, I love using it. It makes me feel old school, sort of like one of those hackers in the movies. That's probably just a personal thing.
I was familiar with most of the concepts but the links section made things click in that regard. Enjoyed the post as well.
It just takes a while to be faster in the terminal than with the gui, and most people won't switch from the thing they're used to until they see significant advantages.
I remember when I first started using the terminal, it was slow and confusing. You had to read the man pages for every little thing. Discovering the command you want is tough, I'd be screwed without the internet.
Now I hate when I need to take my hands of the keyboard to use the mouse. What a waste of time!
