Yes, this. Refactor first to make the upcoming change easier and cleaner, not after. Don’t ask for permission, don’t even call it refactoring or cleanup. Just call it working on the feature, because that’s what it is. Don’t let non-engineers tell you how to engineer.

LLM got jokes! This had me in tears. Best AI response I’ve ever read hands down.

Not any language. I code professionally in F# which has semantic whitespace and it has literally never been an issue for me or my team. In contrast to Python, it’s a compiled language and the compiler is quite strict, so that probably helps.

Thanks, I did try Terminator, but it didn’t seem to have the kind of C-Tab MRU tab switching I was after. BTW, it looks like the two I did find also support multi-pane terminals with arrow key navigation. Thanks for taking the time to reply!

MRU means Most Recently Used. Sorry if that wasn’t clear.

Thanks, I’m open to learning alternative workflows, so thanks for adding that info.

OK, this sounds close to what I want, but I left one part unsaid: my muscle memory is such that if I want to visit the 2nd most recent tab, I can hold Ctrl, press Tab twice, then release Ctrl. It doesn’t sound like I can accomplish this with tmux key bindings, or can I?

Thanks for the link! There are lots of lists of terminals out there, but it’s really hard for me to judge the quality of the lists.

Thanks, I’ve heard of tmux but have never used it before. I took a quick look at the Getting Started guide, and it sounds like I could get behavior like what I want by e.g. creating two windows each with one full-window pane and toggle back and forth between windows? I will definitely look into this further.

Because you still need to be able to understand what’s actually getting executed. There’s no debugger so you’ll still be debugging Bash.

Are you saying that you want to separate your two logical sections by having different levels of indentation and that’s what makes Python go crazy?

Since it’s a superset of JSON, couldn’t you just use the JSON notation if you hate the semantic whitespace?

I like the idea in principle. For it to be worth using though, it needs to output readable Bash.

let is also used to declare values in better languages than JavaScript, such as Haskell and ML family languages like OCaml and F#

Where I work, Senior Engineer is an IC role. They attend the same meetings as other engineers. Its the Staff+ Engineers and managers that attend more meetings (in ascending order)

That is nice for when C# is mandated, but it’ll never replace F#

Yeah, me too.
