A ‘Software Developer’ Knows Enough to Deliver Working Software Alone and in Teams
It depends on the scale of the project but man, if you can't build a simple CRUD app in your preferred stack and deploy it in some fashion (even if it's just a binary posted on some website, kinda like Exa) then that's just disappointing...

Which 2nd language should I learn?
Can compile to a single binary to build tools like exa
- Exa Is Deprecated
- ls -l IN COLOR!

What's your favorite Go architecture for a new micro-service? Here's mine...
Try https://github.com/ogham/exa and exa -T -L2 command . It will generate a good folder structure tree to update the question

macOS Command-Line Tools You Might Not Know About
Some of us don't want all of GNU's utilities; just on an as-needed basis. They're not as needed as they once were.
Many of these utilities have been rewritten in Rust and have more modern features.
For example, instead of ls, I use exa [1]. Or ripgrep [2] instead of grep.

List of apps I use every day - Version 2023
fish: A very fast shell with various customization options to streamline daily commands. I discovered it through this post by @caarlos0, where he provides more details about performance and the differences between fish and zsh. Additionally, I use some CLI utilities like delta, exa, and ripgrep. Here's my dotfiles for fish.

Ls with icons
Hi! I use this: https://the.exa.website, and the package to this: https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/exa/

Everything I Installed on My New Mac
I still use exa for listing files in the terminal. It's a modern replacement for ls with a lot of useful features. With icons, colors, and git integration, it makes listing files much nicer.

Exa Is Deprecated
This kind of thing should probably be generalized so that any new parameter can be seamlessly woven into your `ls-like` reports.
https://github.com/c-blake/lc/blob/master/extensions/fe1 does `du`, but you could use `ffprobe` to do the run-time in hours:minutes:seconds for media files (or maybe 0sec for non-media) or numerous other things.

Ask HN: Why did Nim not catch-on like wild fire as Rust did?
I don't know about all your other questions, but the https://github.com/c-blake/cligen CLI framework seems much lower effort / ceremony than even Rust's `argh` and is just about as old as `clap` (both started 8 years ago in 2015).
There are over 50 CLI utilities at https://github.com/c-blake/bu, many of which do something novel rather than just "re-doing ls/find/cat with a twist". While they are really more an "ls/ps construction toolkits" with some default configs to get people going, I think https://github.com/c-blake/lc and https://github.com/c-blake/procs are nicer than Rust alternatives. I mention these since you seem interested in such tools.

Exa: An Alternative to Ls
https://github.com/c-blake/lc can do that and more; Indeed you can group "dot directories" differently than "non-dot directories". When I sat down to write `lc` I went through all of exas issues and features and included as much as I felt reasonable.
I never liked the graphical tree mode, though. I prefer packing as much information as possible into small real estate (like cell phone terminal screens).
What are some alternatives?
lsd - The next gen ls command
sl - SL(1): Cure your bad habit of mistyping
colorls - A Ruby gem that beautifies the terminal's ls command, with color and font-awesome icons. :tada:
broot - A new way to see and navigate directory trees : https://dystroy.org/broot
fish-shell - The user-friendly command line shell.
fd - A simple, fast and user-friendly alternative to 'find'
iomrascalai - Iomrascálaí is an AI for the game of Go/Weiqi/Baduk written in Rust
coreutils - Cross-platform Rust rewrite of the GNU coreutils
eza - A modern, maintained replacement for ls
bat - A cat(1) clone with wings.
axiom - A 64-bit kernel implemented in Nim
