Y'all know about ctrl-r to search history, right? I went for so many years without even thinking to look for something better than up-arrow, so I have to mention it.

Wait until they learn that you can ctrl+u when you mistyped your password in sudo instead of spamming backspace...

What does that do?

It deletes all keystrokes that have been entered. So, if you know you made a typo when entering your password, you don't have to press backspace many times to make sure you have deleted all the characters before starting over but you can just press ctrl+u and start over.
