Command Line Life Partner Wanted

I'm not sure I agree that shell users are a dying breed. Being a young developer (25yo) I and most, if not all, my co-workers are using a shell to develop and run unit debug/trace in. I think the amount of computer users in general has gone up so merely the ratio of shell/gui users has gone down.

Most people aren't command line geeks because they have no desire for that. If this person has kids and empowers them then they might become anything, but if this idea of spawning a kind of clone persists then the kids are likely to be constrained, unhappy, and ultimately failures at life.

One of the very first things I did with my dad's computer as a child (of four years, mind you) was learn the Hayes/AT command set. Then I started dialing phone numbers with it. This was on a dumb terminal all without the burden of the Windows 3.1 Terminal app on our 386SX.
Shortly after that I taught myself how to work with DOS on a 486DX. QuickBASIC came about two or three years later.
Today I still have a bad habit of performing file operations through cmd.exe instead of Windows Explorer, have been programming in C# for a few years now, and can hold my own with (X)HTML and CSS.
What utter nonsense it this? The power and versatility of the UNIX shell(s) is exactly why I and many others choose to work with UNIX. In fact, I tend to work more and more in ksh - my X desktop is almost exclusively a handy way to have several xterms open. If I only had the gui, I would get next to nothing done.

I did not choose my mate based on her acceptance of the CLI lifestyle. We have no children yet, but when we do whether they are introduced to Windows or Linux computers first is going to be a protracted and difficult battle.

C'mon, a unix admin even being offered "two chicks at the same time" is suspect. Him turning the offer down obviously makes this a fake.
I was quite sure that many women out there would find the ad very intriguing, until he got to the part about only using Vi. Seriously, why would you bring up your mental health conditions even before the first date?

He wants ONE child? Okay, so either he doesn't want his family to go anywhere or his grasp of the Unix way is very light. Of course he needs MANY children, each good at one and only one thing:
One child can read and write.
One child can do math.
One child knows how to operate a car.
And so on.
Then, in order to do anything useful he pipes together the children. That's the proper Unix way of founding a family.

yes I know , its a tongue in cheek article , but to be serious for a second - I personally have never come across a unix developer or admin or support person who didn't use the shell. If you really need to manhandle the OS beyond playing with a few desktop toys you have little alternative. So while no doubt shell (if you can call cmd.exe a shell) users in Windows are a dying breed, in Unix/Linux they're very much alive and well.

Two people accustomed to often using the Unix CLI for their work/passion are likely to have a lot in common, as using the CLI a) really isn't that common and b) requires a measurable amount of intelligence and mental flexibility combined with precision and foresight.

DOS had many deficiencies that modern shells lack, like for instance its lack of multitasking and, more specifically, the need for terminate-and-stay-resident calls to emulate (inefficiently) multitasking of a kind. This led to all kinds of interesting problems where the OS was not really meant for multiple processes, so had memory which was not partitioned (i.e., no virtual memory to keep programs' memory separated from each other). So there were all kinds of hacks where you could have a background process that runs, sorta, and edits the memory of the running process. Many of these were beneficial third-party things just meant to make DOS usable as an OS.
Another clear distinction is that DOS was not merely a shell, but a whole OS. Modern OS command lines are actually shells like bash or tcsh, which are very rich with features like tab completion and command history, as well as a more useful batch scripting facility. I can actually do most of my work in a pure command-line environment with bash, vim, and a couple of other programs. I could never do that in DOS ever because it's just not nearly as powerful as a POSIX shell.

This guy sounds like a total loser, but I still use shells for a bunch of reasons. When I'm at the library, I'd always bring up a shell and type in bullshit commands to hold my computer so nobody would touch it. Other than that, when I'm working in a shell, I like to think people might assume I'm hacking into some top-secret pentagon database.
Either way... this guy is definitly a huge loser.
I wouldn't necessarily say so. My boyfriend and I are both 18-year-old shell users. I don't know how many girls my age are into the kinds of things I am, though, but I see he's after a slightly older woman, so that might increase his odds. By a negligible amount.

I rally can't think of a modern system where you can't use the command line. In fact, most developers I work will drop to the command line from time to time.

Dangling love pointers are bad!
A short cut to start the command prompt makes it "great" - is that really all what got improved.
Well, for me it takes more to a great command prompt - but then I use 4NT ever since MS-Dos 3.11 (at that time called 4Dos or NDos). Have a look for your self of what a great command prompt can do for you:

Well, actually, there seems to be a bug in the men(8) firmware, as while they actually have two brains (one behind the eyeballs, and the other around the middle of the body), they seem to cause multiple failures when operated simultaneously ... :)
... the unfortunate thing here is that they seem not to be designed for useful multi-tasking, such as real discussions, anything computer-related, reproduction, or plain old friendship (actual studies are a bit difficult to conduct in a laboratory setting, due to the innate instability of said subjects ... and our legal department's strong stance on subject's dissection for further analysis)
:-)
That seems not to be a problem for single geeks, through they are not reproducing fast enough
However, there seem to be a distinct specie, namely "women", which seem to be able to do casual multi-tasking
Still conducting (scientific) studies on a strange activity when mixing men and women (seemingly night-activated & light-sensitive)
