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.

I've been playing with Obsidian and having a great time. It's fundamentally a .md editor but it has so many affordances that it feels different. Link autocompletion, highlighting backreferences, polished mobile app. A lot of teaching resources focus on folder structure, oddly.

LLMs are great at style transfer, and this works surprisingly well for syntactic transformations too. I rewrote a small website's EJS templates to 1500 LOC of TSX with a oneshot in Claude. It took ~12 minutes, but it just worked. (TSX seems nicer than EJS for static analysis.)
