What this snippet does
nohup detaches the process from the terminal so a dropped SSH session does not kill it.
Expected output
nohup: ignoring input and redirecting stderr to stdout
Why practise typing this
Typing processes code builds muscle memory for the symbols and indentation Linux uses most, which prose-based typing tests never cover. DevType measures your words per minute and accuracy on this snippet and tracks the individual characters you mistype, so later lessons can target them.
