I have nothing but fond memories of reading Beej's guides.

It's also this sort of work that's becoming less necessary with AI, for better or worse. This appears to be a crazy good guide, but I bet asking e.g. Claude to teach you about git (specific concepts or generate the whole guide outline and go wide on it) would be at least as good.

I don't disagree, but since the quality of AI is largely a function of the quality of human content, there's always going to be value in well-written human content. If humans stop producing content, I think the value of AI/LLMs drop significantly as well.
