Ask HN: Most interesting tech you built for just yourself?
I'm slightly embarrassed that in terms of building personally relevant things, my proudest (digital) work is always shell scripts I use daily. Most of my personal projects are non-technical meat-space things like building with wood and the like. Here's some that I've open-sourced:
- A git interface using fzf that works pretty nicely and is very composable. https://github.com/bigH/git-fuzzy
- An interactive evaluator, perfect for interactive `sed`, `grep`, `jq`, etc. If properly configured, it'll keep history per command or using whatever key you give it. I find myself using it often with `jq`. https://github.com/bigH/interactively
There are many other shell functions/scripts that are interesting from my `dotfiles`. Particularly interesting snippets for anyone who wants them:
- A recursize `which` that follows symlinks and stops at a real file. https://github.com/bigH/dotfiles/blob/3d48792b4e910d2fc82504...
- A `watch` alternative that runs in the current shell. https://github.com/bigH/dotfiles/blob/3d48792b4e910d2fc82504...

Ask HN: Can I see your cheatsheet?
I suggest:
C-x C-e in the CLI (not sure if it’s zsh only) will open your command line in your $EDITOR - useful to get code highlighting and write multi line commands if that’s the blocker. The problem is iterating.
OR
Pipe your awk input to a file and then use this thing I wrote to build up your awk program. I use it most often with `jq`.

Was looking at the GitHub page for eg and found this gem
I tried eg and tldr, but I preferred cheat. Why, and why not. Cheat not only have nice examples, but let you improve them or create yours. I use the cli, not the curl.

This sub turned me onto Raycast, but... No syncing of settings / keyboard shortcuts between machines??
Hey, the app I recommend shows you all the commands you need per app not just for macOS! Support for programming languages? Download this. For git, docker and neovim download this one.

Aid needed
cheat is also a useful one. Shows you a cheat sheet for the command you search.

how to enable cheat autocompletion in zsh
are you sure autocompletion isn't enabled for cheat? You're maybe hitting this bug upstream.

What is a good way to learn bash scripting
Find something to automate or make easier and write a script for it. If you get stuck on a detail, read the man pages of the command you're using (man pages confuse you? try tldr or cheat). Then google it, there's a shitton of SO Q&A on bash. If you can't find it, find a bash channel on irc or discord and ask (they'll expect you've read the FAQ though). Keep notes. I wrote a script to read and edit notes for bash, in bash, and it taught me new things!

Do you ever use cheat sheets at work?
Definitely do. I created my own doc site using docusaurus where i stored a lot of info i use every once in a while. Things i use more often are available as aliases in the shell or zsh functions. There's also the handy dandy cli https://github.com/cheat/cheat that contains a lot of cheat sheets for common binaries.

My thoughts after a week of ChatGPT usage
As a dev - It's a good (very good, in fact) alternative for man, tldr, cheat and zeal (and probably tens of other projects - sorry for not mentioning you) with a very pleasant interface - which was the point I think ;)
What are some alternatives?
polybar-clockify - Control Clockify through Polybar
tldr - 📚 Collaborative cheatsheets for console commands
dotfiles - My configuration files
cheat.sh - the only cheat sheet you need
Tiny-Tiny-RSS - A PHP and Ajax feed reader
tealdeer - A very fast implementation of tldr in Rust.
invoicer - A dead-simple, easy-to-use minimalist billing application.
tldr - Haskell tldr client
nitter - Alternative Twitter front-end
pywal - 🎨 Generate and change color-schemes on the fly.
tiny-snitch - an interactive firewall for inbound and outbound connections
howdoi - instant coding answers via the command line
