Your favourite Rust CLI utilities this year?
I'll plug my tool ubi as an alternative/addition to this. It works with any GitHub project that does single-binary releases (so most Go and Rust projects).

[Release] cargo-quickinstall 0.2.0 - Prebuilt binary crates now served from GitHub Releases
I suppose this might be a reasonable feature to add to https://github.com/houseabsolute/ubi if there is a standard for signing releases on github. Is there such a standard?

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.

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.
