As a sysadmin I just want to say I love bash. I'm not a programmer, but I get shit done in it all the time, and it's easy to understand and fix errors later. I have read every single why bash is bad article and I find all of them wanting for better arguments.

On the windows side, power shell.

And keep in mind, many of these scripts have been running for 10+ years. When's the last time you wrote a piece of software that worked for 10 years with minimal or no update?
