ducks: linux command for the 10 largest files in current directory
du -cks * | sort -rn | head -11
# Usually set this up in my bash profile as an alias:
# alias ducks='du -cks * | sort -rn | head -11'
# Because it is fun to type ducks on the command line. :)

// This started as a tweet with a joke of "C++ pro-tip: #define private public",
// and then it quickly escalated into more and more evil suggestions.
// I've tried to capture interesting suggestions here.
