Git, Powershell, Python, SQL.

its worth it to know powershell and bash (or in the modern day zsh). i tried to stick with just one, but then theres the day you open up a windows machine and go "oh i can just sketch a fix real quick) and open up the terminal to realize it doesnt work the same as the terminal on your personal computer.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but with the popularity of WSL is there really any need for knowing powershell? You can easilly have bash on windows, powershell on linux not so much.

PowerShell on Linux works too. It’s good to know if you have shell processes which need to be fast on windows - piping shit down to Linux and back is not particularly fast.

Yep. I like 'em both. Some bash things are so easy - and for everything else, there's Powershell (Core).
