    The Missing Semester of Your CS Education 📚

    I like jetbrains. A lot. They can be slow and bloated at times, but they work well, and I know them pretty well. I always used the vim plugin, so for a long time I thought "eh, why bother with running vim itself? I've got the main advantages plus the advantages of a full IDE!" I still think there's some truth to that. But a new guy joined my team recently, and when we were pairing on something I saw him using neovim + tmux for everything. I was pretty shocked. He could move through the code really fast. Faster than I could. Plus, everything just stayed in the terminal. I've recently been going through The Missing Semester of Your CS Education (highly recommended, btw) and have been on kind of a kick of re-learning some tools/habits and exploring more modern command line tools. So, I decided to give switching over to neovim a shot.

  • lazygit

    simple terminal UI for git commands

    If you’re looking for a solid TUI for Git, check out lazygit. I’ve been using this as a replacement for GitLens in VSCode, that I thought I’d never be able to get past but it’s been a smooth migration experience.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
