Git is a powerful tool. And, in my opinion, the only version control system software developers should be using in 2020. Perhaps there will be a new king in town one day. But in 2020, Git is the only solution worth investing your time with. Why? Because everyone uses it! Literally, everyone.
However, not everyone is an expert with git! These are three git commands that I believe you should NEVER use unless you truly understand what you’re doing!

I’ve been getting a lot of financial questions lately.

In a professional setting, there isn’t always an abundance of time with which I could dive deep into a topic with an individual. So, these articles are for future me. I am writing this all to give myself a place to point someone to when they’ve asked me a question on a topic I’ve already written about extensively. And, by extension, I hope that you as…
