Find is especially useful when paired with loops (for/while). That’s when it saves me the most hassle

Great article highlighting the importance of the good ol’ unix utilities.

I’m primarily writing this comment because I almost closed the page due to your blog’s color scheme / design. It’s simply too distracting. Lots of colors and no clear defining borders — for example, your shell commands are intertwined via the text, making it not easy on the eyes.

Hope this helps!
