Playing with Zellij this week (a terminal multiplexer like screen/tmux) and it's worked great so far. It's nice having many short-lived, named terminal sessions on a remote machine. Normally I'd have multiple iTerm windows, but they end up with huge histories.

It's funny how languages can offer multiple forms of syntax, but formatters standardise to a single form. E.g. single vs double quotes in JS, optional semicolons in JS, different ways of grouping imports in Rust. Should new languages be more syntactically opinionated?

It feels like a mature software project is one where bugs require multiple commits to fix. You've hammered out the basic issues, so the remaining issues are often weird interactions between components.
