Paul BuetowI also feel the most comfortable in the #terminal. There are a few high-level tools where it doesn't make always a lot of sense like web-browsing most of the web, but for most of the things I do, I prefer the terminal. I think it's a good idea to have a terminal-based interface for most of the things you do. It makes it easier to automate things and to work with other tools. https://lambdaland.org/posts/2025-05-13_real_programmers/
Real Programmers
There’s been an explosion of tools for software development. At the same time there’s a growing sense that software quality isn’t what it used to be—or that developers these days don’t understand what it takes to be a “real” programmer, whatever that means. I’m not that old, but I have some old-school tool preferences. Some tools I really like; in other cases I feel that by not adopting particular habits, I’ve gained or retained an edge over others in the software development space.
