“finding a persistent issue with getting students to understand that a file/directory structure exists, and how it works”
Generational loss of a concept! Growing up mostly with phones means less understanding of file/folder structure. Either the OS deliberately tries to hide it from you (mobile OSs grouping files by type), or on computers where people mostly use Downloads folder and Desktop.
When it comes to Git history, less is more
Generally agree. Mainly tracking file creation/history gets a bit annoying (especially when files are moved/renamed/split up). But most of the time I don't think it particularly matters.
Also some good tips like ingorerevs

DRY code is not always better code. Duplication is often better than shitty abstractions
Ask HN: Full-on machine learning for 2020, what are the best resources?
Honestly, skip all of the courses. Pick a problem to solve, start googling for common models that are used to solve the problem, then go on github, find code that solves that problem or a similar one
There is mixed consensus on this. But copy-pasting snippets to solve my problems is how I've learned to program so far; why should ML be any different.
