I generally only need `ln -s <src> <dst>`. I know the -s means symbolic link, but in my head I read it as "source", since that's how I remembered the order long ago.



This is confusing, because when you picture the link as an arrow (as in `ls` output), the link name is the source and the link target is the destination.
