Programmers life

I feel powerful when I type a command without typos and it executes without su

I feel powerful when a random person I never heard of ( in my company ) comes to me directly for help because they heard from their mother in law's left tesical that you helped them with a similar problems 9 months ago.

When you are like 16.

Using terminal when you are over 30 yo is a sign that you didn't invest in finding a tool what does it for you and automate it.

@jfgilmore Sure ! Yout next step is to ask your self "Why the fuck I write these lines ? Can't I have a tool to do it foe me ? " Ans this is where it begins :)

I still write SOME lines in shell by hand, but mostly :

1. I Automated it
2. I found a GUI tool which does it for me.

Writing lines (of code or shell) is a waiste of time. I want to have end result asap.

I'll go one step below.
Using shortcuts. All the way.

@NoToJavaScript

It's the other way around for me.

I think my nickname would be "automation generator".

Oh. A tedious task and annoying. Shell script for.it.

A tedious task and it requires bit more parsing. Python for it.

I have a utils folder. I sometimes struggle to find stuff in it.

🤣

@NoToJavaScript

I find GUIs inflexible, and often slower to use than CLI.

@bittersweet yhen you din't find a good gui :)

You can automate a lot of things just in bash. No worries.

But if you think that "there is no tool what do what you do" then youndidn;t do your reserach.

@NoToJavaScript my automation tools work from cli too

@IntrusionCM Yers but that's my point

Annoying task : Automate it somnehow.

Sometimes I write a c# "script" to generate more c# because it's easier for me to do some bizzare one time logic than to do it by hand.

Sometimes, it backfire tho ;p I once spent 2 days to do a "script" while the code by hand would've taken around 4-5 hours.
