Hi Toby,

I'm following this ongoing discussion with interest. Great to see this being 
added to Carpentries material.

I was a bit surprised by this negative conclusion. My feeling would be that it 
isn't reasonable to expect people not to use these tools while learning, and 
therefore they need to know how to use them safely. And they do seem quite good 
at explaining code or suggesting different approaches.


Here's a slide I used in a recent workshop, although I'm far from 100% happy 
with it.
