If you Google just bash, by the way, you get the Linux definition.

| Apr 11, 2016 at 10:25 | comment | added | Oli Mod | I really can't dispute that if you search for the right combination of words, you probably get your question answered. I just don't think that is justification for automatically labelling a question as bad or its poster lazy. And I do know squabbling about how easy or not it was to Google isn't a good use of anybody's time. LMGTFY is not the SE way. As above, there are more productive (and helpful) ways to deal with questions like this. | |

| Apr 11, 2016 at 9:57 | comment | added | Oli Mod | As I say in my answer, there are situations that really make me wonder why people are asking us... But even there I don't attribute malice. We can handle this stuff by being helpful and informative without calling people idiots and fighting amongst ourselves. | |
| Apr 11, 2016 at 9:54 | comment | added | Oli Mod | Sure, but knowing you need to add those words to your search is half the problem. The other half is not understanding those results. "Bash is a GNU POSIX shell". So what's {GNU,POSIX a shell}? Being accurate and concise is great but some basic questions deserve a bit of ELI5 treatment some times. | |
| Apr 11, 2016 at 9:21 | comment | added | muru | You forgot to compare the results for "what does bash mean linux" and "what does bash mean Ubuntu". Neither of those results are that muddy - at the very least OP could have clicked through a few of them. | |
